#mostrecenttrades USDT (Tether) and USDC (USD Coin) are two of the most popular stablecoins in the cryptocurrency market. Both are pegged to the US dollar, meaning 1 USDT or 1 USDC is typically equal to $1. They are used widely in trading, DeFi platforms, and as a store of value to avoid crypto market volatility. USDT is issued by Tether Ltd., while USDC is managed by Circle. Though both serve similar purposes, USDC is often considered more transparent due to regular audits. Traders use them for quick transactions, cross-border payments, and to park funds safely in crypto ecosystems.
