Data: USDC leads USDT in stablecoin trading volume competition, with monthly trading volume hitting a new high.
Odaily Planet Daily News — According to Visa’s on-chain data platform statistics, in the first half of 2026, USDC has widened its lead over USDT in stablecoin trading volume. Data shows that the adjusted trading volume of stablecoins in June rose to $1.79 trillion, up 63% from May and 125% from June 2025, reaching a historical high. Visa’s statistics have excluded non-real economic activities such as bot transactions and internal transfers between exchanges.
In the first half of the year, total stablecoin trading volume reached $8.82 trillion, already surpassing the $5.8 trillion level for all of 2024, but still lower than the record $10.8 trillion in 2025.
In terms of structure, USDC accounted for about 70% in the first half of 2026, while USDT accounted for about 25%, indicating a significant shift in market share toward regulated stablecoins.
The analysis notes that as banks and institutions gradually use stablecoins for settlement and treasury management, with institutions such as Standard Chartered and BNY Mellon accelerating their integration into the USDC ecosystem, stablecoin infrastructure is entering a phase of institutional expansion.
