According to @MilkRoadDaily, stablecoins have evolved from a single USD-pegged coin to a critical infrastructure in the cryptocurrency market, with USDT (Tether) and USDC (Circle) now powering the majority of trading volume and liquidity across exchanges. The growth of stablecoins has enabled traders to efficiently hedge against volatility, maintain on-chain liquidity, and rapidly transfer value across blockchains. Recent events such as the upcoming Circle (USDC) IPO and Tether’s market dominance have also started influencing U.S. regulatory policy, with lawmakers considering new frameworks for digital dollar-backed assets (source: @MilkRoadDaily, June 19, 2025). This rising influence underlines the importance of stablecoins for market stability and the broader crypto ecosystem, making them essential instruments for both institutional and retail trading strategies.
