redemptions hit usdg hard: -$313m, nearly 10% of supply. usdt -$33.3m, pyusd -$26.2m, rlusd -$20.8m, crvusd -$16.3m.

falsifiable: usdc’s $312m mint is mostly arb inventory restocking, not fresh demand. proof: if usdc supply drops >$200m within 48 hours, it was arb. if it holds above $77.2b, that’s organic.
