According to BlockBeats, on July 11, EmberCN reported that due to the overall downturn in the crypto market in recent months, the combined issuance of the two major stablecoins, USDT and USDC, has decreased by approximately $13.9 billion, with USDT decreasing by approximately $7.4 billion and USDC decreasing by approximately $6.5 billion.

However, the adoption of stablecoins in real-world economic scenarios continues to grow. In the first half of this year, the real-world transaction volume (ATV) of stablecoins reached $8.82 trillion, approaching the record high of $10.8 trillion for the whole of last year, with USDT contributing more than half of that.

While the overall issuance of stablecoins has declined, the issuance of USDT on the Tron chain has bucked the trend, reaching a record high of $90.3 billion, with an increase of approximately $2 billion in the past month. This means that the reduced issuance mainly came from the Ethereum ecosystem, primarily focused on DeFi, while demand for Tron in real-world applications such as cross-border transfers and payment settlements continues to grow steadily.
