- New stablecoins such as PYUSD, USDY, and USD0 are also gaining traction even though they have limited liquidity.
Tether (USDT) has strengthened its dominance in the stablecoin market with an overwhelming 62.42% market share. Its market capitalization has reached up to $158.8 billion with a whopping trading volume of 24 hours totaling to $98.8 billion. This liquidity overshadows its closest rival and solidifies the role of USDT as the most active stable coin in centralized and decentralized markets.
The aggregate stablecoin is currently equal to $260.04 billion. Although its stable dominance is small, 7.48%, but has maintained stable shows that people still require dollar-pegged crypto assets in the trade as well as remittance application.
Circle is the issuer of USDC and stands in second place with a market cap in the range of $62.5 billion and a daily volume of $12.4 billion. Although it is much smaller than USDT, focus on compliance with regulations makes it a sought-after asset by institutions and fintech platforms in the United States and Europe.
Newcomers Show Growth as Liquidity Concentrates at the Top
Both DAI and USDe have a market cap of $5.3 billion and represent an expansion in the decentralized finance (DeFi) industry. The 24-hour volume of DAI at $20.5 billion is much better than the USDe supply at $155.1 million, indicating a wider adoption by traders and protocols.
In the same time, USD1 and FDUSD are lagging behind, with market cap of $2.2 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively. Although USD1 has lower capitalization, its daily trading volume of $652.4 million shows that it enjoys niche yet active use, probably somewhere in regional markets or DeFi systems.
FDUSD, backed by Hong Kong-based First Digital, recorded a vigorous $7.0 billion in 24-hour charging, indicating a rapidly expanding user base in Asia after its latest incorporation into major exchanges.
PayPal stablecoin, PYUSD is already at a $902.4 million market capitalization and with the daily trading volume of $22.3 million. Although it remains minor compared to players in the sector, it represents an important step by a conventional fintech competitor into the digital currencies space, and points to the possibility of greater use among payments.
Emerging Stablecoins Gain Traction Despite Size Disparity
Two newer additions to the stablecoin market, USDY and USD0, appear to have hit an early stride. USDY has a capitalization of $637.6 million and is trailed by USD0 with capitalization of $618.4 million. They both show a small 24-hour turnover of approximately $ 6.0 million, which is not much liquidity, but growing investor attention.
Despite the difference to the instant size of such assets, their contemporaneity lays emphasis on a wider-reaching diversification application in the stablecoin segment. Alternative frameworks are still being tested, however, as new models, algorithmic, overcollateralized, or issued by non-traditional actors, receive niche adoption.
This has changed the landscape with the best existing deep liquidity and volume dominated by top-quality large-cap tokens such as USDT, USDC, and DAI on one hand, and a rising number of competitors on the other, with both compliance-driven and more decentralized approaches.
