Since May 2022, three stablecoin assets have remained in the top ten market cap positions: USDT, USDC, and BUSD. Both USDT and USDC have been in the top ten positions for much longer.
Furthermore, the entire stablecoin economy, valued at $138 billion, represents 12.71% of the entire crypto economy’s value of $ 1 Billioun. In trade volume alone on Saturday, Jan. 28, stablecoins equated to 78.85% of all crypto asset trades worldwide on both centralized and decentralized exchange (dex) platforms.
