According to recent data from IntoTheBlock, Bitcoin’s market dominance has surged by 6% since the beginning of the year. Over the same timeframe, Ethereum has seen a modest increase of 0.2%. Impressively, Bitcoin’s value has increased by approximately 43% year-to-date. Meanwhile, the collective market capitalization of stablecoins has grown, with its market share rising from 7% to 10% of the total value of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins.
Notably, USDT has reached a new milestone with a market valuation of $118 billion. This substantial growth in USDT has been a significant factor in the increasing market share of stablecoins, often at the expense of Ethereum, over the past six months. These developments reflect a shifting landscape where stablecoins are capturing a larger portion of the crypto market.
