Sky Frontier Foundation Estimates $611M in Sky Ecosystem Gross Revenue for 2026 with $21 Billion USDS Supply

Following a landmark year of 74% supply growth in USDS, Sky Ecosystem's stablecoin is now the third-largest stablecoin and the largest yield-generating stablecoin. The SFF is estimating Protocol Profits to grow 198% YoY to $158M in 2026, based on its calculations leveraging historic onchain data.

GRAND CAYMAN, Cayman Islands, Feb. 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Sky Frontier Foundation ("Sff"), an Independent Organization That Supports Research, Education and Ecosystem Development for the Sky Ecosystem, Today Published Its Sky Ecosystem Q4 Update and 2026 Outlook Regarding the Sky Protocol.

"2026 is about turning it on at full capacity," said Rune Christensen, Director of SFF. "With a streamlined cost structure and a diversified pipeline of real-world yield, we believe Sky is one of the definitive destinations for institutional-grade, highly competitive risk-adjusted return on USD-denominated capital."

The Sky Stablecoin Engine: Scaling Onchain Credit and Yield
The 2026 fiscal year marks Sky's deliberate and comprehensive transformation into a robust economic powerhouse. The ambitious 2026 projections are anchored by the previous year, when USDS supply reportedly surged 74% to $9.2 billion.

In 2026, contributors to the Sky Ecosystem are expected to focus on expansion. With a dedicated growth engine for partnerships and a diversified yield pipeline, the SFF believes Sky Protocol is positioned to capitalize on the rising prominence of stablecoins across global policy and capital markets.

Sky Frontier Foundation 2026 Outlook

• Revenue and Profitability Estimates: $611.5 million in Gross Protocol Revenue (81% YoY growth) and $157.8 million in Protocol Profits (198% YoY) expected for 2026.
• USDS Market Scaling: Circulating supply is estimated to nearly double to $20.6 billion with a substantial strategic increase in USDT liquidity allocation coming in Q1.
• Sky Agent Network Expansion: The projected strategic launch of up to 10 new Sky Agents, beginning in Q1 with the potential deployment of a new Sky Agent providing highly efficient structured credit solutions backed by stablecoin liquidity.

Sky Protocol's current financial trajectory, as analyzed by SFF in the Sky Ecosystem report, is characterized by the stabilization of foundational costs against an expanding revenue base.

"By operationalizing our financial reporting, we have proven that decentralized protocols can exceed the transparency standards of traditional capital markets," said Christensen. "I invite our community and the broader financial industry to join us as we detail how we are scaling this infrastructure to become the premier global destination for yield on the dollar."
