The changes in the stablecoin market structure in 2025 are worth paying attention to. While BTC and altcoins experience price fluctuations, the stablecoin ecosystem is quietly expanding. The market caps of USDT and USDC have already hit new all-time highs, with a combined total of approximately $263B. The driving forces behind this come from two directions: first, the deepening of payment application scenarios; second, the gradual improvement of regulatory frameworks (such as the advancement of the GENIUS Act). As large institutions and venture capitalists increase their focus on stablecoin infrastructure, we are witnessing a market shift from speculation-driven to actual application-driven. This change not only reflects the increased maturity of the market but also signals the long-term potential of crypto assets in the payment and settlement fields.

This wave of stablecoins is really profitable, with a scale of 263B? But to be honest, USDT and USDC should have been like this a long time ago, it's just that now big institutions are finally opening their eyes and noticing.

Stablecoins are really about to take off this time. 260 billion is not the end; the real thing is the implementation in payment scenarios. I’m not worried even if BTC drops.

Stablecoins are really worth paying attention to this time. 263B is just the beginning, I feel like the payment scenario is the real gold mine.
