Stablecoin Adoption

In addition to transaction fee revenue, Ethereum observed significant growth in the adoption of stablecoins. Tether retained its position as the largest Ethereum-based stablecoin by market capitalization in Q1 2024, witnessing a 14% increase in market value compared to the previous quarter.

Meanwhile, its competitor, USDC, experienced a 23% increase in ERC-20 market value during the same period.
