Over the past seven days, the stablecoin market reached a new record level of $323.343 billion, while net inflows totaled $1.542 billion. Tether posted modest growth of 0.04%, maintaining its market share at approximately 58.67%.

Tether Controls 58.67% of the Stablecoin Market

Tether’s USDT remains the dominant force in the stablecoin sector by a wide margin. This weekend, its market capitalization reached $189.7 billion after increasing by $68.2 million since May 9.

Circle’s USDC moved in the opposite direction last week, losing 1.22% of its market capitalization — more than $950 million.

USDC’s market capitalization currently stands at $77.068 billion, which is 1.98% lower than its level on April 16.

Sky’s USDS Is Approaching the $10 Billion Mark

One of the strongest performers of the week was Sky’s USDS. The third-largest stablecoin grew by 11.50%, attracting approximately $906 million in fresh capital.

USDS now holds a total market valuation of $8.791 billion and is rapidly approaching the $10 billion milestone.

Sky’s older stablecoin, DAI, ranks fourth with a market capitalization of $4.613 billion. Since May 9, DAI has lost slightly more than $46 million in market value, posting a modest decline.

World Liberty Financial’s USD1 also recorded positive momentum, rising 1.97% over the week. According to defillama.com, inflows of approximately $87 million pushed USD1’s market capitalization to $4.52 billion.

— BlackRock’s BUIDL climbed 8.01%;

Meanwhile, Circle’s USYC posted a slight decline of 0.30%.

The most dramatic weekly increase came from Western Union’s USDPT, which surged by an extraordinary 597,568%, according to Defillama stablecoin statistics.

Despite the explosive growth, the recently launched stablecoin still represents a very small share of the market, with a capitalization of only $1.5 million.
