USD-backed stablecoins have become a dominant force in the cryptocurrency market, accounting for nearly 90% of all transactions and averaging a weekly volume of $270 billion in 2024. This significant market share underscores the strategic importance of stablecoins to the U.S. economy, particularly as oil trade moves away from exclusive reliance on the USD and national debt interest is projected to grow from $850 billion to over $2.5 trillion annually in the next four years.

Notably, 58% of stablecoins are on Ethereum. Euro-backed stablecoins, while growing, still only account for 1.1% of transactions.
