RESEARCH: In Q1 2026, stablecoins achieved a record market cap of $315 billion with $28 trillion in transaction volume. This growth was driven by $USDT and $USDC, as yield-bearing tokens facilitated increased institutional adoption despite a decline in the broader cryptocurrency market, according to StablecoinInsider.

DeFi can finally play RWA elegantly. Deposit Ondo’s tokenized stocks into @TermMaxFi, borrow USDT directly with a fixed interest rate locked in advance, and repay early or extend anytime. No more worrying about fluctuating rates or manually managing positions. Real-world assets + fixed costs—tools used by institutions—are now easily accessible to retail investors. The RWA season has arrived. Are you ready to amplify liquidity? #TermMax

🚨 CRYPTO IS COMING FOR THE GLOBAL PAYMENT SYSTEM Stablecoins just hit $7.2T monthly volume,overtaking ACH and Visa. And this is just the start. Projections now point to $1.5 QUADRILLION annually by 2035. That’s not a typo. 🔹 Visa: ~$13T/year 🔹 Mastercard: ~$9T/year 🔹 Combined: ~$22T/year Stablecoins are already on pace to dwarf that. Chainalysis expects onchain payments to rival traditional networks within a decade. This isn’t some distant idea. The global payment system is being rebuilt, in real time, on blockchain. $ETH

The focus of stablecoin competition now appears to have shifted to the Asian market. Tether’s CEO recently visited South Korea and met with companies such as KB Financial and Coinone. Circle’s CEO has also taken action, scheduling a trip on the 13th—both companies are actively working to expand in the Korean market. Additionally, Circle has recently drawn criticism for its inaction during the hacking incident, failing to promptly blacklist and freeze the hacker’s USDC addresses. In contrast, Tether invested in SDEV, the company behind $SKY DAT, and has been consistently purchasing $SKY tokens—demonstrating Tether’s growing interest and involvement in decentralized stablecoins. @EmberCN’s Professor Yujin has already located SDEV’s wallet—interested parties can take a look. The company has now accumulated $163 million worth of $SKY. Meanwhile, Spark has repurchased a total of 27 million $SPK tokens, valued at $550,000. Compared to inflation, this level of repurchase is still insufficient. From a supply and demand perspective, $SKY currently appears more favorable than $SPK. Overall, Circle is facing significant competitive pressure, and its price seems relatively high. I would only consider entering if it drops to $70. As a long-term holding on my watchlist, I plan to buy and stake $SKY during major market downturns. I’ll wait on $SPK for now and reassess based on future repurchase data.

Analysts report that stablecoin transaction volume has for the first time surpassed transactions on Visa and Mastercard cards, driven by demand for fast, low-cost transfers and the growth of crypto infrastructure. #bitcoin #cryptocurrency

hard to optimize yield when borrow rates keep changing every few hours fixed-rate until maturity gives you clarity, you lock cost upfront and stop guessing market moves @TermMaxFi structures this as a marketplace, pick your term and rate instead of reacting to aave fluctuations #TermMax been using stablecoin vaults to earn from option premiums while stacking xp on top also adding alpha market positions when sentiment is clear, upfront premium only so no liquidation risk my current setup is fixed borrow for base stability, then rotate between vaults and alpha depending on conditions anyone else mixing vault yield with directional alpha here

USD1 is a compliant asset and should be fine; The sharp decline in $wlfi is likely due to its high annualized yield, prompting many large holders to deposit $wlfi and withdraw USD1, leading to two perceived outcomes: 1. Large-scale staking of $wlfi to borrow USD1 effectively amounts to an indirect sell-off of wlfi, creating short-term selling pressure; 2. The combination of DeFi circular lending and high yields has reminded the market of the CRV situation, intensifying panic due to poor liquidity; Let’s observe @worldlibertyfi’s next moves.

Swiss Stablecoin AG's platform is explicitly chain agnostic and bank connected via API/Web interface. This is the kind of setup where Quant Overledger shines as an orchestration layer. Microsoft Windows moment for money. It will be obvious in hindsight. $QNT
