# Organic volume

In the Stablecoin Scanner's method: settled stablecoin volume between parties, excluding transfers that touch exchanges, bridges or routers.

In the Stablecoin Scanner's methodology, organic volume is the part of settled stablecoin volume that moved between parties rather than among exchanges, bridges and routers. A transfer counts as organic only when both payer and recipient are outside the services catalogued in the scanner's label book; the rest is called service-to-service. The two are one split of the same settled volume. The academy says the cross-chain dashboard leaves Solana out of both; on 1 November 2026 the scanner's 30-day headline still listed Solana as excluded from organic figures ('not_measured_on_chain').
