Figure Technologies Shares Rally 46% YTD After Q4 Beat, OPEN Launch
Figure Technologies shares have risen over 46% year-to-date on strong preliminary Q4 2025 results and optimistic analyst upgrades. The company launched its On-Chain Public Equity Network on January 15, a blockchain platform enabling direct stock lending without traditional intermediaries.
1. Surge in Consumer Loan Marketplace Volumes
Figure Technologies reported consumer loan marketplace volumes of $2.71 billion in Q4 2025, a 131 percent increase year-over-year. This acceleration was driven by expanded loan product offerings and partnerships with credit unions, positioning the company for a revenue beat in its upcoming quarterly report. Management highlighted that the average loan size grew by 12 percent over the quarter, signaling both higher demand and enhanced credit quality among borrowers.
2. Explosive Growth in Stablecoin Issuance
YLDS stablecoin issuance jumped 198 percent month-on-month in December 2025, reaching an all-time high of $450 million outstanding. This meteoric rise reflects robust institutional adoption of blockchain-based financing solutions. The company noted that over 60 percent of new issuances were tied to short-term corporate treasury use cases, underscoring strong demand for programmable liquidity.
3. Strong Market Reception and Year-to-Date Performance
Figure’s stock has rallied over 46 percent year-to-date in early 2026, outpacing both technology and financial services peers. This momentum has been supported by two analyst upgrades in January, each raising full-year revenue estimates by an average of 15 percent. Trading volume has averaged 5 million shares per day, reflecting heightened investor interest in the company’s blockchain infrastructure roadmap.
4. Launch of On-Chain Public Equity Network (OPEN)

In the first week, OPEN processed transactions totaling $80 million in notional value, with over 200 institutional participants registering to use the platform.
