Stablecoin Giants Tether and Circle Hold 85% Market Share

Tether and Circle dominate the stablecoin market with an 85% share, totaling $257.7 billion in supply.

The combined market cap of Tether's USDT and Circle's USDC is roughly $302.9 billion, with USDT holding a significant lead at 60.5% and USDC at 24.5%

USDT serves as a widely used dollar substitute, while USDC is favored by institutions for its compliance-friendly option.

The high concentration of stablecoins poses systemic risks, as disruptions could impact both crypto and traditional money markets.
