‍Stablecoin Market Reaches $306 Billion Amidst Regulatory Advancements The global stablecoin market has seen significant growth in 2025, increasing by 49% to $306 billion by November. This expansion is largely attributed to new legislation, including the U.S. GENIUS Act, and increased institutional adoption. Key developments include Circle's IPO, PayPal's expanded stablecoin support, and Stripe's global payment plans. Regulatory clarity from frameworks like MiCA and the GENIUS Act, along with banking charter approvals for major issuers, is fostering trust.
