Lately, stablecoins seem to have achieved crypto's clearest product-market fit. 

Since January 2023, payment companies settled over $94.2B in stablecoin payments; monthly volumes have grown from under $2B to over $7.3B, according to research done by Artemis, Dragonfly, and Castle Island Ventures.

Despite years of insolvency claims and corporate scandals, Tether continues to stand as one of crypto's biggest success stories. Accounting for 62.5% of total stablecoin supply, USDT can be found across a dozen-plus networks, though most of its action takes place on Ethereum and Tron.
