Solana's $USX stablecoin briefly lost peg on secondary markets, plummeting to $0.1 amid a liquidity squeeze. The sudden drain sparked market concerns, but the situation was quickly contained—liquidity providers stepped in and restored the peg to $0.94 within hours. The incident highlights the importance of robust liquidity reserves in stablecoin ecosystems. While the recovery was swift, it's a timely reminder of how concentrated liquidity or sudden outflows can pressure even established stablecoins on high-speed chains.

Wow, USX dropped to 0.1? That's so intense, but luckily it was saved in time.

Drop to 0.1? That's really outrageous. Luckily, the LPs reacted quickly, or else another wave of people would have been wiped out.

It can still be saved if it drops to 0.1; liquidity providers are really tough.

Really, $0.1? How much ridiculous liquidity is needed to crash like this... But the LPs responded pretty quickly.

Damn, it's another liquidity issue. The stablecoins on the Solana chain are really fragile.

Falling from 1 to 0.1, this is the true face of stablecoins... When liquidity tightens, the true nature is exposed. Where is the promised stability?
---
Quick rebound to 0.94? Don't be fooled by this illusion. When the next crash happens, there may be no one to catch the falling knife.
---
It's another liquidity squeeze, another emergency market rescue... Seeing this play out too many times, it will happen again sooner or later.
---
Can stablecoins on the Solana chain be trusted? With such high liquidity concentration, problems will eventually arise.
---
A quick recovery doesn't mean there's no problem; on the contrary, it indicates high risk—if no one steps in to rescue, it's game over.
---
History shows that after each "timely control," a bigger collapse awaits. Being cautious is never wrong.
