Global capitalization of fiat-backed stablecoins has climbed above $250 billion, the highest level on record, according to CoinDesk data published in mid-June. Earlier in the month, analytics firm CryptoQuant pegged the figure at $228 billion, itself an all-time high, highlighting the rapid pace of inflows into dollar-pegged tokens.

The milestone marks a roughly 55% increase from a year earlier and a $33 billion, or 17%, expansion since the start of 2025. CoinGecko estimates the sector has added $97 billion in market value since January 2024, driven largely by Tether’s USDT and Circle’s USDC, while newer entrant Ethena Labs has accumulated nearly $6 billion in assets. Centralized exchanges now hold a record stock of stablecoins, bolstering liquidity across crypto markets.

Use of stablecoins is spreading beyond trading desks. Fireblocks’ “State of Stablecoins 2025” report shows 49% of financial institutions worldwide already deploy the tokens for payments, with another 41% testing or planning integrations. The data suggest stablecoins are moving from a niche concept to a core component of payment and treasury infrastructure.
