USDt market cap hits $160B, cementing its ‘digital dollar' role: Tether CEO
The market cap of Tether's USDt, the world's largest stablecoin, has surpassed $160 billion for the first time, a 'new mind-blowing milestone,' according to Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino. In a Thursday post on X, Ardoino called the achievement a testament to USDt's growing role as the digital dollar for 'billions of people living in emerging markets and developing countries.' USDt crossed $150 billion in May. Ardoino has said that USDt is used by more than 400 million people worldwide, expanding by 35 million wallets each quarter, especially in emerging markets where it serves as a reliable dollar substitute. The blockchain distribution of USDt shows that Tron hosts the highest USDt supply, now accounting for about $81 billion, compared to Ethereum's $65 billion, according to data from DefiLlama. USDt issuance on other networks is significantly smaller, totaling $6.8 billion on BNB Chain, $2.3 billion on Solana and $1.1 billion on Polygon. USDt backed by cash and US Treasurys According to Tether's attestations, cash and cash equivalents, primarily short-term US Treasurys, constitute 81.5% of USDT's backing reserves, with Bitcoin accounting for 5.1%. Tether holds over $127 billion in US Treasurys as of Q2 2025, ranking as the 18th largest holder globally, alongside countries like South Korea and Germany. The company posted over $1 billion in operating profit in Q1. The stablecoin issuer has also been consistently minting new tokens. On Wednesday, Tether minted another $1 billion, with more than $4 billion over the past week alone. Last week, Tether announced it will stop allowing redemptions of USDt on five legacy blockchains, including Omni Layer, Bitcoin Cash SLP, Kusama, EOS (now Vaulta), and Algorand, starting Sept. 1. The move aims to let the company focus on blockchains with better scalability, more developer activity and stronger community engagement, according to CEO Ardoino. Stablecoin market expands amid growing regulatory clarity The stablecoin market has been expanding quickly, with fiat-pegged digital assets increasingly seen as the internet's go-to settlement layer. In 2024, stablecoin transaction volumes even surpassed those of Visa and Mastercard combined. The growing momentum comes as the Trump administration has prioritized stablecoin regulation, with the GENIUS Act leading the charge. The bill gained bipartisan support in the Senate Banking Committee and passed the Senate in June. However, it stalled in the House of Representatives after a group of lawmakers blocked a key procedural vote on Tuesday. The House is set to vote Thursday on the GENIUS Act as a standalone measure.

Tether USDT challenges Circle's lead on BitPay payments in 2025
USDC, the second-largest stablecoin by market capitalization, has been losing market share against its main rival, Tether's USDt, on the major payment platform BitPay in 2025. After dominating stablecoin transactions on BitPay in 2024, Circle's USDC saw its transaction share plummet against Tether's USDt, according to BitPay data shared with Cointelegraph. In January 2024, USDC's transaction share on BitPay accounted for 85%, compared with USDT's 13%. By May 2025, USDC's share had dropped to 56%, while USDT's had increased to 43%. The change in dynamics came despite the optimism around Circle's public launch in early June as well as certain regulatory advantages over Tether's USDT, particularly in the European Union under the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). Tether's USDT top stablecoin by volume on BitPay In addition to narrowing the gap with its main competitor by transaction count, Tether's USDT stablecoin has also led the way in payment volume. 'In 2024, USDC was the token most commonly used. However, starting in March of 2025, USDT gained a sizable share of transaction volume, exceeding 70% of stablecoin volume processed by BitPay,' the crypto payment firm said. According to BitPay, the shift to UDST can be attributed to 'both a growth in overall stablecoin transactions' as well as a 'swing in existing merchants and customers preferring USDT over USDC.' BitPay's chief revenue officer, Bill Zielke, said the platform has a 'sizable base of users and merchants in Europe,' but remains focused on growing in the United States. 'In 2024, USDC transaction count was almost double that of USDT,' Zielke noted, adding that USDC is still the most popular stablecoin on BitPay by transaction count, though it has tumbled in 2025. Tether rejects both MiCA and a public launch Tether's leading position in payment volumes and rising dominance in transaction count on BitPay against USDC offer an interesting insight, given the many differences between Tether and Circle, including their approaches to regulation. While Circle became the first global stablecoin issuer to receive regulatory approval under Europe's MiCA in July 2024, Tether has repeatedly criticized some MiCA regulation aspects, explicitly refusing to comply with the framework in Europe. In June, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino also confirmed that Tether has no intention to run an initial public offering despite Circle debuting public trading on June 5 after raising $1.05 billion in an upsized offering. Despite USDC losing steam against USDT on BitPay in 2025, USDC has continued to see notable growth in market capitalization in the past year. According to data from CoinGecko, USDC saw its market cap surge as much as 88% in the past year from around $33 billion to its current $61.7 billion. In the meantime, USDT increased its market value by 40% over the same period, from $112.5 billion to $158.3 billion. Additionally, USDC market cap has surged 41% year-to-date, while USDT market value has edged up just 15.5%. Source:

Octa broker's take on the upcoming NFP report
KUALA LUMPUR – Media OutReach Newswire – 2 July 2025 – This Thursday at 12:30 p.m. UTC, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics will release its highly anticipated Nonfarm Payroll (NFP) report. While typically issued on the first Friday of each month, this week's release has been brought forward due to the upcoming U.S. Independence Day holiday. The NFP report is traditionally considered to be the most significant piece of macro statistics and tends to generate considerable market impact. The report offers critical insights into the health of the U.S. labour market, detailing job creation in the non-agricultural sector, unveiling the latest unemployment figures, and tracking changes in average hourly earnings. This data release has the potential to reshape U.S. interest rate expectations and steer investor sentiment, which is why the report is closely watched by market participants. The report will almost certainly affect the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar (USD) and trigger volatility across various financial instruments, including equity indices and commodities. Previous report The previous NFP report (published on 6 June) presented a somewhat mixed picture. While the headline figure, showing the number of jobs created, was above the market consensus, the preceding report was revised downward. At the same time, average hourly earnings grew faster than expected. Overall, the market interpreted the report as bullish for the DXY, which ended the day higher by 0.50%, while XAUUSD and EURUSD were down 1.22% and 0.45%, respectively. ADVERTISEMENT Market Expectations The NFP release arrives against a backdrop of heightened uncertainty and amplified volatility. Financial markets remain gripped by the persistent geopolitical instability, particularly in the Middle East and Eastern Europe, alongside ongoing trade tensions between the United States and global partners. Indeed, despite the NFP's significance, the ongoing focus on global trade tariffs could partly limit its influence on market movements. Current market positioning strongly suggests a widespread expectation for a weak report that would ostensibly provide further justification for a Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate cut later this year. This sentiment is clearly reflected in both consensus surveys and recent price action in the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY). Thus, according to Reuters, analysts expect to see only a modest increase of approximately 110,000 jobs, the lowest projected figure since November 2024. Concurrently, the DXY is hovering near a two-year low, just shy of the 97.00 mark. The primary reason for the greenback's recent weakness has been the prevailing dovish monetary policy expectations. In fact, the latest interest rate swaps market data implies almost a 75% chance of a 25-basis point (bps) rate cut by the Fed in September. Looking further ahead, the market currently prices in around 30% probability of a full percentage point reduction in the Fed's benchmark rate by July of next year. Potential Outcomes Kar Yong Ang, a financial market analyst at Octa broker, offers a perceptive outlook: 'Several factors, such as a weak dollar, dovish monetary policy expectations, and a rather pessimistic consensus for tomorrow's labour market report suggest that higher-than-expected NFP figures will likely have a disproportionately stronger impact on gold [XAUUSD] and EURUSD vs lower-than-expected figures. In other words, a bullish NFP report's upward pressure on the U.S. dollar will likely outweigh the bearish impact of a weaker-than-expected release'. On balance, in case the NFP report reveals stronger-than-expected results—indicating a larger increase in payrolls and/or higher growth in average hourly earnings—the greenback could experience a substantial rebound, leading to sharp downside corrections for XAUUSD and EURUSD. Conversely, should the NFP report come out weaker than expected, gold and the euro may receive only a minor boost. 'I would treat any correction in gold as a buying opportunity', says Kar Yong Ang. 'XAUUSD remains in a structural uptrend due to strong fundamental reasons, so it is recommended to look for buying opportunities. Consider placing pending buy-limit orders on XAUUSD, particularly near the $3,280 level, in the event of a bearish reaction to the U.S. NFP report. Should a bullish reaction unfold, consider placing pending buy-stop orders on XAUUSD, specifically near $3,360'.
