Adjusted stablecoin transaction volume climbed to a record $1.79 trillion in June 2026, according to on-chain data cited by Techub News and analyzed by Allium, a Visa-owned blockchain data platform. USDC accounted for about $1.21 trillion, or 67% of the total, while USDT represented roughly $576 billion, or 32%. The figures mark the first time USDC has opened a clear lead over USDT on a monthly transaction-volume basis. Analysts attributed the shift in part to the US regulatory framework and Circle’s compliance positioning, which appear to be strengthening USDC’s role in institutional payment flows. While USDT still leads in overall market capitalization and offshore trading activity, the report suggests its edge in real-economy utility is weakening.
USDC takes a clear monthly volume lead over USDT
Adjusted stablecoin transaction volume reached a record $1.79 trillion in June 2026, according to data cited by Techub News and sourced from on-chain analysis by Allium, the blockchain data company owned by Visa. Within that total, USDC processed about $1.21 trillion, giving it a 67% share, while USDT handled roughly $576 billion, equal to 32% of the market.
The data marks the first time USDC has established a significant lead over USDT in monthly transaction volume. The analysis said the shift was supported by the US regulatory framework, which has reinforced Circle’s compliance advantage and helped USDC gain a dominant position in institutional payment use cases. By contrast, USDT continues to lead in stablecoin market capitalization and offshore trading activity, but the report said it is losing ground in terms of practical economic utility. The analysis was cited by CryptoBriefing.
