The Block Research published a ranked snapshot of the largest stablecoins by circulating supply, the reference table most desks bookmark for tracking dollar-peck liquidity across chains. USDT holds the top spot by a wide margin, with USDC second and a growing cluster of yield-bearing and bank-issued tokens rounding out the list.
The ranking matters because stablecoin supply is the clearest read on dollar liquidity sitting in crypto. Each dollar of issuance is a dollar parked on-chain rather than in a TradFi settlement rail, and the share split between issuers is a real-time map of which trust model the market is voting for at any given moment. Tether retains the structural lead, but the table now spans algorithmic, centralized, tokenized-money-market, and bank-issued variants, reflecting how fragmented the market has become.
