1. Top Stablecoins: A Simple Analysis 

For a simple analysis aimed at finding the top stablecoins of the market this month, generally, we consider three parameters: market capitalization, market dominance and trading volume.

1.1. Top Stablecoins by Market Capitalisation 

Among stablecoins, Tether leads with $103.8 billion, followed by USDC at $32.2 billion and Dai at $4.8 billion. First Digital USD, Ethena USDe, USDD, and Frax hold smaller market shares. Market capitalisation reflects the total value of coins in circulation, indicating Tether’s dominance in stablecoin markets.

1.2. Top Stablecoins by Market Dominance 

Tether dominates stablecoin markets with 71.12% market dominance, followed by USDC at 21.97% and Dai at 3.28%. First Digital USD, Ethena USDe, USDD and Frax hold smaller shares. Market dominance indicates the proportion of the total stablecoin market controlled by each coin, highlighting Tether’s significant lead over competitors in terms of usage and adoption. 

1.3. Top Stablecoins by Trading Volume 

Tether leads stablecoins in trading volume with $73.6 billion, followed by USDC at $8.3 billion and First Digital USD at $ 7.8 billion. Dai, Ethena USDe, Frax, and USDD have lower trading volumes. Trading volume indicates the total value of stablecoins exchanged in the market, reflecting Tether’s dominance in liquidity and active trading compared to other stablecoins. 

2. Stablecoin Price Analysis: An In-Depth Overview 

Tether, USD Coin, Dai, First Digital USD, Ethena USDe, USDD, FRAX, and TrueUSD are the top eight stablecoins on the basis of market capitalisation, at the time of developing this report.

Let’s do an in-depth price analysis focusing on these eight coins.

2.1. Stablecoin One Month Change 

Ethena USDe leads in one-month change with a 210% increase, followed by USDC at +17.17% and Tether at +6.64%. TrueUSD, Frax, First Digital USD, Daui and USDD experienced declines.

The one-month % Off Peg indicates the deviation of a stablecoin’s value from its intended peg, reflecting its stability in relation to the target price. Negative deviation from peg is considered more dangerous for stablecoins’ stability.
