Amid an “inevitable” bull market sentiment, the stablecoin supply has sharply decreased in the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. The movement is, however, predicted to be an addition to the upcoming market push.
A prominent crypto researcher and investor, Nic Carter, recently shared a post noting that the supply of stablecoins has bottomed, which essentially means it “will be Up Only from here.”
Nic cites several reasons, adding that the recent recovery in the crypto market and the increase of neobank or fintech applications have increased the uptake of stablecoin.
He also notes another reason for the emerging adoption of interest-bearing stables, which are backed by other crypto assets. These stablecoins tend to have sharp liquidity compared to the leading stablecoins, such as USDT and USDC
Another crypto-twitter personality, Pentoshi, also noted the sink in stablecoin supply and explained that “everyone who wanted to sell, has done so.”
According to Pentoshi, the stablecoin supply hit lows three months ago, and the crypto market is now seeing remarkable inflows since last month after almost two years.
The total stablecoin market is currently around $124 billion, which topped out at over $180 billion in April 2022.
