For the past few months, stablecoins have yielded the spotlight to their more speculative counterparts, including tokens inspired by politicians. However, recent on-chain data suggests that stablecoins are back and have surpassed the $200 billion market cap.<\/p>\n

According to the data shared by Alphractal<\/a>, the segment\u2019s capitalization has surged to $211 billion, a record high, thanks to months of stable growth, which started in mid-2023.<\/p>\n

Stablecoins<\/a>‘ market capitalization grew by 73% from its August 2023 value of $121 billion, updated data released on January 31st show. The primary driver of this segment’s growth is still Tether’s USDT, however, USDC has been gaining ground recently, which is fascinating.<\/p>\n

Since 2023, the stablecoin market has grown significantly, mainly driven by USDT (Tether). However, recently, USDC has been gaining an edge over other stablecoins.<\/p>\n

Tether\u2019s USDT Remains Primary Driver Of Growth<\/h2>\n

Since 2023, the stablecoin market has grown steady, mostly due to Tether’s USDT<\/a>.<\/span> As of now, stablecoins are worth $223 billion, which is a 0.2% increase from yesterday.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Interestingly, USDT and USDC are the present growth drivers of stablecoins. Apart from the numbers from both coins, the stablecoins group hasn’t changed much since 2023 and has shown steady and average values.<\/span> Right now, Tether’s USDT is valued at almost $140 billion, and USDC<\/a> is at $53 billion.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

USDC Slowly Gains Ground On Other Coins<\/h2>\n

Alphractal\u2019s post on Twitter\/X shows that USDC has been gaining ground over other stablecoins in the market. According to the post, this is happening due to a drop in altcoin prices and since a substantial part of the sell-offs have been swapped into USDC.<\/a><\/p>\n

As of today, the market cap of cryptocurrencies reached $3.41 trillion. Chart: TradingView<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The post also showed that USDC’s dominance in this segment has hit a key resistance level, the same amount observed in 2021. This was the start of the bear market in 2022 when Bitcoin\u2019s price dropped to as low as $15,500. If this metric persists, it can serve as the market\u2019s bearish signal, impacting investors\u2019 buying decisions. However, if this metric declines, it can be USDC\u2019s jumping board to claim new highs.<\/p>\n

What To Expect From The Stablecoins Segment In The Short-Term<\/h3>\n

In the last bull run, USDC\u2019s supply increased in May, then reached its high in March 2022. The stablecoin\u2019s market cap increased by 170% from April 2021 to March 2022. If the current coin supply continues to grow but price starts to dip, then the stablecoin market may hit its peak in a few months.<\/p>\n

Traditionally, a rising market cap for stablecoins reflects growing investors\u2019 confidence, which signals an increase in capital inflows.<\/p>\n

On the contrary, a rising stablecoin market cap is usually associated with growing investor conviction, signaling the potential for boosted capital inflows. This suggests that the bullish momentum could continue for a few more months.<\/p>\n

By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn. Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats \u2013 a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later). Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley! So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill). Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair. Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin\u2019 helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better. Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies. Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects. So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words \u2013 the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.\",\"sameAs\":[\"jomarjet01\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/wncen.com\/author\/jomarjet01\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Stablecoins Hit $200 Billion\u2014A Massive Crypto Rally Ahead?","description":"For the past few months, stablecoins have yielded the spotlight to their more speculative counterparts, including tokens inspired by politicians.

He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley! So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill). Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair. Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin\u2019 helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better. Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies. Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects. So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words \u2013 the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.","sameAs":["jomarjet01"],"url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/author\/jomarjet01\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Stablecoins Hit $200 Billion\u2014Does This Signal A Massive Crypto Rally?","url":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/stablecoins-hit-200-billion-does-this-signal-a-massive-crypto-rally\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/wncen.com\/news\/stablecoins-hit-200-billion-does-this-signal-a-massive-crypto-rally\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/a_861637.png?resize=200%2C200","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/a_861637.png?fit=1024%2C1024"},"articleSection":"Cryptocurrency Market News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Christian Encila"}],"creator":["Christian Encila"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["altcoins","crypto","memecoins","stablecoins","usdc","usdt"],"dateCreated":"2025-02-01T14:00:53Z","datePublished":"2025-02-01T14:00:53Z","dateModified":"2025-02-01T14:00:53Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Stablecoins Hit $200 Billion\\u2014Does This Signal A Massive Crypto Rally?\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/stablecoins-hit-200-billion-does-this-signal-a-massive-crypto-rally\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/news\\\/stablecoins-hit-200-billion-does-this-signal-a-massive-crypto-rally\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/02\\\/a_861637.png?resize=200%2C200\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2025\\\/02\\\/a_861637.png?fit=1024%2C1024\"},\"articleSection\":\"Cryptocurrency Market News\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Christian Encila\"}],\"creator\":[\"Christian Encila\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/wncen.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"altcoins\",\"crypto\",\"memecoins\",\"stablecoins\",\"usdc\",\"usdt\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2025-02-01T14:00:53Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2025-02-01T14:00:53Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-02-01T14:00:53Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/wncen.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/a_861637.png?fit=1024%2C1024","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/688412","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/557"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=688412"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/688412\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":688420,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/688412\/revisions\/688420"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/688416"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=688412"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=688412"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wncen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=688412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
