The total supply of stablecoins dropped by 14 billion dollars over a thirty day period according to Glassnode data. This decrease is the fastest reduction recorded since June 2022. Tether and Circle accounted for nearly 11 billion dollars of the total reduction. Total stablecoin supply sits just below 280 billion dollars. Holders are redeeming stablecoins for dollars and removing cash from the market.

Key points

  1. This decrease is the fastest reduction recorded since June 2022.
  2. Holders are redeeming stablecoins for dollars and removing cash from the market.

Why it matters

A shrinking stablecoin supply means holders are redeeming tokens for fiat currency, which leaves less liquidity available for cryptocurrency market activity.
