On October 14th, the crypto market suffered a sharp pullback, with Bitcoin and Ethereum breaking key support levels. Ahead of the Federal Reserve Chairman's speech, institutional investors—the so-called "whales"—increased their short positions, anticipating a sharper decline. Despite this, the flow of stablecoins remained stable, demonstrating resilience and serving as a liquidity anchor.
According to Matrixport, Tether reached a total capitalization of $180,6 billion, while Circle reached $76,1 billion.
“Despite the recent cryptocurrency crash, stablecoin flows remain one of the clearest signs that this is not the end of cryptocurrencies nor the end of this cycle,”
the company noted in its analysis.
In 2025 alone, Tether minted $42 billion in new stablecoins, while Circle added another $32 billion, increasing the total liquidity available in the crypto market. According to the report, this expansion reflects the maturation of the sector, which now exceeds $300 billion in market value, compared to just $4 billion five years ago.
Matrixport added that while the inflow volume is still far from the $3 trillion forecast by US authorities, the growth of stablecoins demonstrates the diversification and sophistication of digital finance. The firm also noted that global de-dollarization has driven the adoption of these stablecoins as a hedge against fiat currency volatility.
In July, after the GENIUS Act was passed, Bo Hines, director of the President's Council of Advisors on Digital Assets, predicted that the total value of the cryptocurrency market could jump to $15 trillion to $20 trillion, driven precisely by the consolidation of stablecoins as essential infrastructure for the digital financial system.
