The milestone matters less for the number than for what it signals: $4.1B in circulation is now moving natively across two dozen chains, not bridged.
Stable, a blockchain network built around Tether's USDT, has launched a dedicated institutional yield product — giving…
Tether returns the largest stablecoin to its original 2014 home, this time over client-validated RGB rails rather than Omni, with UTEXO targeting a July go-live and Lightning in the wings.
A ranked snapshot of the top stablecoins by circulating supply, with USDT holding the dominant share despite tighter competition from USDC, Ethena's USDe, and bank-issued tokens.
USDT runs from the British Virgin Islands with quarterly attestations. USDC is a US-listed company with monthly attestations and a Big Four audit. Here is what each setup actually means.
USD1 launched in 2025 with a $2 billion debut and political backing, but has no operating history. Here's how it stacks up against USDC and USDT.
Tokenized T-bills carry yield but settle slower and carry KYC baggage. USDT and USDC are faster and more flexible. Here is how to pick.
USDT and USDC are the two giants of crypto's dollar layer, but they are run by very different companies, with very different transparency, and very different risks. Here is the side-by-side that matters.

EURC and EURI are MiCA-compliant euro stablecoins, but most volume still runs through USD-pegged tokens like USDC and USDT in Europe.
USDC, DAI, and USDe all claim to be worth a dollar. The mechanism behind that promise, and the way it can break, is what separates them.
Stablecoin issuers turn USDT and USDC reserves into billions in T-bill yield. The full revenue stack also includes redemption fees, integration deals, and issuer tokens.
Circle is regulated, but not in the way most users think. USDC sits under state money transmitter licenses, NYDFS, and a Cayman trust, with no FDIC backstop.
Sending USDC, swapping to USDT, or paying with a crypto debit card can each trigger a taxable event. Here is how the rules actually work.
