The crypto space has seen surging demand for stablecoins this year
May 05, 2025 at 03:32 pm
The crypto space has seen surging demand for stablecoins this year as investors sought safety amid market volatility and high interest rates. According to data presented by CryptoPresales.com, the combined market cap of all USD stablecoins had jumped by nearly 20%, reaching over $240 billion last week.
However, most major USD stablecoins posted stellar gains since the beginning of the year, especially in comparison to BUIDL token which skyrocketed 617% YTD.
World’s Largest USD Stablecoin Grew Just 8% In 2025
Crypto investors usually chase high-risk, high-reward opportunities, but many turned to stablecoins for security in 2025. As the crypto market faced regulatory uncertainty, global macroeconomic stress, Donald Trump’s tariff policies, and escalating trade wars, stablecoins became the most sought-after digital safe haven.
As investors flocked to stablecoins, their market cap surged over the past four months. The CoinMarketCap data shows just how significant that growth was.
On January 1, the combined market cap of all USD stablecoins amounted to $203.3 billion. Since then, this figure has increased by nearly 20%, reaching over $240 billion last week.
While most major USD stablecoins have seen a solid market cap growth since the beginning of the year, one name stands out. With a massive 617% year-to-date surge, the BUIDL token, native to the BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund, leads all USD stablecoins in market cap growth. It saw soaring adoption among both crypto-native users and institutional investors, emerging as a top trusted on-chain alternative to traditional money markets by offering daily yields backed by U.S. Treasuries.
All other major USD stablecoins lagged far behind BUIDL’s triple-digit growth. Tether, the world’s largest USD stablecoin by market cap and the most-traded crypto, grew just 8% YTD to $148 billion. USDC and USDS followed with solid gains of 40% and 49%, respectively, while PayPal USD stood out with an impressive 89% surge.
Still, a few top stablecoins posted losses despite the broader market growth. The market cap of Ethena USD dropped by 20% to $4.6 billion since January, First Digital USD declined by 32%, while Usual USD saw a massive 89% decrease.
Stablecoins Now Hold Over 8% Of Crypto Market Cap, 3% More Than Last Year
With USD stablecoins seeing a significant 20% market cap growth in four months, their market share in the crypto space has also increased. Last week, stablecoins accounted for over 8% of the total crypto market cap, or 3% more than last May.
Like stablecoins, Bitcoin, the world’s largest and most expensive crypto, has also seen its market share grow. Last week, Bitcoin made around 63% of the total crypto market cap, up from 53% last May.
On the other hand, many altcoins are losing ground as ongoing uncertainty and market volatility push investors to more stable, reliable assets. Last week, altcoins held around 29% of the total crypto market, down from 42% in the same month a year ago.
