This just shows that people's trust in Coinbase is increasing over the last few years of time while the same kind of tether is facing a kind of bad news due to lot of frozen tokens for various reasons. Other than that it changes nothing; USDC and USDT are not differ much from one another just the token issuer alone.

And it also proves that more people are into crypto trading, which is why they use stablecoin pairs. Which is again a good thing for the market but as an individual, they need to be very careful, it can take away your money in no time.

Sometimes I do forget that USDC is also being co-owned and controlled by Coinbase and Circle. Circle is always in front as the issuer; Coinbase has really made some big moves, not just because of the coin freezing, but some platforms like Stake and others have also been switching from USDT to USDC, and the volume of USDC that passes through DeFi is enough to increase the transaction volume, but stablecoins do the freezing.

The only difference is that USDT takes instant action once they are asked to, while USDC claim they only take action when the court asks them to. Maybe it gives holders and users some sort of feeling that they are fair while they are all under the same category.

It's also a regulatory issue. Tether basically shoot themselves on the leg when they refused or couldn't comply with EU regulators. I can't think of any viable reason that they didn't do it that wouldn't be shady as hell. But i don't think that competition minds, as they left a HUGE market for their competition to swoop in and take.

Even pornhub just announced that they will drop USDT for USDC. If tether could have complied why wouldn't they? Are they relying the idea that trump stays in office for ever and USA is enough for them?

Right, I think th traffic shoot up because people have developed trust for USDC and a large community of user's have dumped USD to USDC because of a number reasons which registration and utility usage is top among the possible reasons for this huge transaction volume witnessed in the USDC network right now, people have fully adopted the coin based on trust build over the time.

All they now have to do is adopt the different networks like the way USDT has been doing it. USDT has been highly preferred because of that in a way that while an exchange may offer over 10 different chains for its deposits and withdrawals, USDC usually has only 2 or 3 supported chains

Also, most exchanges still have way more crypto-USDT trading pairs vs crypto-USDC trading pairs. Maybe this will change with time.

Trading volume doesn't necessarily reflect the number of unique users and isn't a measure of interest. Two people holding $100 each can generate $5,000 in trading volume in just one day. Since USDC remains one of the most popular trading pairs on many DEXs, I wouldn't be surprised by this claim. Especially since the involvement of trading bots can quickly increase volume.

USDT has less supported blockchain and usually hardly available in some big chain like base. Even the USDT that is available in Base is bridged version which has risk of bridge exploit.
On the other hand, USDC is supported in many blockchain and if you are curious you can check it out at :

Code:

This bridge is created by Circle themselves. So, there is no bridge exploit risk because it's mint and burn mechanism.
USDC also the first stablecoin to be bridged to Canton network, a non-EVM blockchain that usually takes sometime for a coin to be bridged.

That's good for USDC because there's now so much trust to them just as how people trusting USDT. This isn't just real life adoption but this is also where people are also putting their money these days. We're on a bear market and everyone is starting to get some funds so that when they see the cryptos that they're waiting to buy becomes cheaper, that's the time they'll start buying. Also, I think that most of the holders that took profit last year, they've kept it in a stable coin which is one of it is USDC.

I'm likewise happy for USDC as they are stepping up to compete with USDT, this 80 trillion dollars transaction volume speaks a lot about the increasing trust that traders have on their stablecoin. People wants trust anywhere they are putting their hard earned money and USDC has proven that they are capable and can be trusted, it is the reason why they have been gaining grounds and stablecoin holders are migrating from USDT to their coin. If USDC continues to show flexibility I'm sure that they will gradually be in pair with USDT which have been the dominant stablecoins for as far as I can remember.

Pronhub recently made a major shift by changing its crypto payment base from USDT to USDC. This was to align legal support for payments to their content creators more universally. I don't know how many subscribers they have, but I suspect this is also a contributing factor to their record-high USDC transaction volume. I'd love to hear your experiences if you're already a subscriber or even a model.

This can be attributed to friendly crypto regulations in the US. Good news for the industry. It shows adoption is increasing at a fast pace. Perhaps, a stablecoin like the USDC will become the "de-facto" US Digital Dollar. Like the FED not launching its very own CBDC, but making a partnership with private entities/companies instead.

In terms of regulatory-compliance, USDC is a much better choice than many USD-backed stablecoins. I'm waiting for the day when physical stores and/or merchants accept USDC (or any other stablecoin) payments directly. That would be a bigger boost towards mainstream adoption. We'll see what happens.

[asriloni]

USDC is widely adopting in almost anywhere. So it makes sense if it has 80 trillion as its total volume. As i know it has 18 trillion vol last year compared to the 13 trillion recorded by USDT tether. It means USDC puts utility and adoption as its main focus instead of keep printing the money thin air like what USDT tether did.

Less supply, but more users and adoption. So it makes sense for USDC to have that big volume in total. Mine is often using USDC compared to the USDT when it comes to the stable coin utilization. That's why i think stable coin is the future.

I must admit that Circle is really good at growing their stablecoin even in the middle of Tether's USDT dominance.Neobanks are charging settlement in USDC and never USDT. That's how ahead they are integrating with the big names like VISA. Even when traders are using USDT to trade primarily, USDC has taken unique approach of becoming the most used settlement stablecoin in various blockchain.

I liked that they know they won't be taking over USDT for trading and they decided to take another path hence the massive transaction volumes. Their routine audit report is the cherry on top although their incapability to freeze hacker's stolen funds tainted their reputation.

USDC is undeniably doing a better job than USDT in terms of regulatory-compliance. It will end up being adopted massively by banks, while USDT will remain the "trader's stablecoin". Even Circle managed to make its EUR-based stablecoin MICA-compliant. Meanwhile, USDT is struggling to obtain such a license from the EU. At this pace, USDC will most likely USDT's "cake". Just you wait and see.

This is when people do trust in crypto although is not real crypto just fiat with a chain but this is a huge milestone, and of course, this will have benefical to other crypto as a whole. I do read that USDC also been used as a settlement by the VISA. Visa Launches Stablecoin Settlement in the United States, Marking a Breakthrough for Stablecoin Integration With more than $3.5B in annualized stablecoin settlement volume1, Visa brings USDC settlement to U.S. institutions.

This means USDC not just for send by you and me but for the big company aswell, and this onyl USDC the USDT seems pretty have number too

Yeah, agree. Circle is playing the long game while Tether is being too comfortable holding its dominating position in trading market. Since Circle seems to be willing to spend money and time to be compliant, if anything arise about stablecoin and its compliance in the exchange market in another region besides EU for example, Circle could actually drive out Tether out of the market easily being the biggest MiCA compliant stablecoin in the market.

Circle's USDC and EURC stablecoins are just the beginning. Now what if it decides to launch stablecoins for other countries as well? Like the Japanese Yen or the Chinese Yuan? All while complying with governments' regulations. Then, Circle will "eat" Tether's "cake". Perhaps, Tether will be forced out of business, paving the way for USDC (USD-based stablecoin) to take over the market.

The time is running out for Tether to stay relevant in the stablecoins industry. This might be a good thing, since Tether had a shady past. People are starting to get notice, based on USDC's ever-increasing transaction volume. We'll see what happens in the long run.

Good news for Coinbase in my opinion.

Hitting $80 trillion in all-time volume is a crazy milestone, and it really shows how stablecoins have quietly become the backbone of modern digital finance. The catch is that moving this much capital puts an immense, hidden strain on the underlying blockchain layers. Whenever stablecoin activity peaks, the sudden surge in transactional throughput creates massive state bloat and erratic gas spikes, which can easily disrupt DeFi apps if the underlying nodes aren't prepared for the load.
We see the ripple effects of this scale first-hand on the node infrastructure side over at crouton.digital. Managing RPC endpoints and validators across dozens of networks (especially high-traffic stablecoin hubs like Ethereum and Solana) makes you realize that mass adoption is no longer a frontend problem-it's a pure backend challenge. The industry has come a long way, but handling the next $80 trillion smoothly will require a lot more focus on predictive gas routing and infrastructure optimization across the board.
