Stablecoin Market Surges to Record $1.79 Trillion Amid Growing Adoption

The stablecoin market reached a record high of $1.79 trillion in June 2026, according to Visa's Allium-powered analytics dashboard.

This represents a significant increase from May's adjusted transaction volume of $1.1 trillion and surpasses the previous record of $1.78 trillion set in February.

The data shows that USDC leads in adjusted volume with about 67% share, followed by USDT at roughly 32%. Base processed $565 billion in volume, trailed closely by Ethereum and Tron as settlement networks evolved.

Stablecoins are becoming increasingly used for payments, cross-border transactions, DeFi projects, and company settlements, offering a predictable financial transfer system.

Nick Ruck of LVRG Research notes that the spike shows the stability of stablecoins in tough economic times and underscores their increasing role in value transfer systems.
