At the start of the year, its market capitalization stood at approximately $92 billion. That figure has climbed to over $120 billion at press time. This means USDT has added more than $28 billion to its market cap in just nine months, reflecting its strong demand and usage. USDT’s market cap dominates other stablecoins According to data from IntoTheBlock, USDT holds the top spot in market cap and leads in trading volume among stablecoins. Most of its transactions occur on the Ethereum and Tron networks, with Tron commanding more than 70% of USDT’s transaction volume. While Ethereum remains popular for USDT transactions, its high gas fees have pushed many users toward Tron, which offers lower fees and faster transaction times.

Layer 2 solutions, such as Arbitrum and Optimism, are also increasingly supporting USDT transactions, adding to its growing presence across various blockchain networks. USDC, the closest competitor to USDT, trails behind in both market capitalization and transaction volume, solidifying USDT’s position. What’s next for USDT? As USDT crosses the $120 billion threshold, the stablecoin faces increasing competition from other stablecoins like USDC. However, with its deep liquidity, strong user base, and presence on multiple blockchains, USDT is well-positioned to maintain its dominance in the stablecoin sector. The future of USDT’s growth will depend on its ability to navigate evolving regulatory challenges and maintain transparency regarding its reserves. However, with no signs of slowing down, USDT continues to lead the stablecoin market, solidifying its place.
