📊 Major Progress in the Stablecoin Economy
New data from Token Terminal highlights a major milestone: stablecoin issuers generated nearly $5 billion in revenue during 2025, powered by operational infrastructure largely built on the Ethereum network.
These numbers show that Ethereum has evolved beyond a simple settlement or transfer layer. It now functions as a core financial foundation, enabling stablecoin issuers to earn real revenue through:
Liquidity management
Reserve deployment and investment
Fee generation
On-chain DeFi activity
Importantly, the expansion of stablecoin supply on Ethereum has moved in tandem with rising quarterly revenues, pointing to a clear link between increased usage and issuer profitability.
This trend reinforces Ethereum’s role as the central backbone of the stablecoin ecosystem, emphasizing that long-term value is created at the infrastructure level—where liquidity lives—rather than solely in the stablecoin assets themselves.
