- USDT, the kingpin with $144B, holds court over 63% of the stablecoin realm.
- Stablecoin coffers swelled 9.61% from January to April ā25, a tale of triumph.
Amid the frosty Siberian winds of regulatory scrutiny, the stablecoin sector bloomed like a defiant daisy in the first quarter of 2025.
Data from IntoTheBlock reveals a shocking revelation: the total stablecoin supply soared to dizzying heights of $220 billion by April 2025, only to reach the stratosphere at $233.47 billion by the first week of April. Three lessons emerge from this avalanche of numbers.
Institutional players, hungry for on-chain liquidity, have flocked to the stablecoin market like moths to a flame. And who reigns supreme? None other than Tether (USDT) and USD Coin (USDC), the twin titans of the stablecoin universe.
USDT: The Unshakeable Pillar of Crypto Liquidity
USDT, with its gargantuan $144B+ market cap, stands tall, claiming 63% of the stablecoin supply. USDC, while playing second fiddle, has reclaimed its throne with a $59B market cap and a 27% share. Together, they wield an iron grip on over 90% of the marketāa duopoly that would make even Stalin envious.
Circleās Bid for Wall Street Glory
As Circle gears up for its IPO, the timing couldnāt be more fortuitous. With the stablecoin market on a tear, the stage is set for a grand entrance into the hallowed halls of the NYSE. Despite a 42% dip in net income, the allure of the stablecoin boom may just be enough to ignite a fresh wave of institutional fervor.
The stablecoin market expanded from $206B in January to $225.8B in Aprilāa 9.61% leap in mere months. But not all stablecoins are created equal. DAI, FRAX, and TUSD languish in the shadows, clinging to a meager 10% market share.

Ethereum vs. Tron: A Tale of Two Platforms
Ethereum maintains its stronghold, housing 53.39% of all stablecoins. Tron, ever the challenger, stakes its claim at 28.55%. This division suggests a subtle bifurcation, with Layer 1 and Layer 2 chains carving out their own niches.
While stablecoin supply balloons, exchange activity tells a different story. February 2025 saw record inflows and outflows, only to be followed by a staggering -$2.9B net outflow in Marchāthe largest quarterly decline. April brought a chill to the market, with inflows and outflows plummeting over 80% from March.
The Future of Stablecoin Oligarchy
Will the sector see a broader decentralization, or remain shackled to the whims of USDT and USDC? Only time will tell if the stablecoin market will embrace change or continue dancing to the tune of its two puppet masters.
