Regulatory timing also worked in USDC’s favor. In the US, the passage of the GENIUS Act in mid-2025 set clearer standards for stablecoin reserves and disclosures — areas where Circle had already invested heavily.

Total stablecoin transaction volume reached $33 trillion in 2025, and projections from Bloomberg Intelligence suggest flows could hit $56 trillion by 2030.
