After losing its first position in favor of Tron in March, Ethereum rebounded to resume its main network place for the USDT, with an offer reaching $ 80 billion. Although the two networks have maintained high supply levels of around 75–80 billion dollars during most of the year, this reversal signals a key change in infrastructure preferences.

In short
- The USDT offer from Ethereum reaches $ 80 billion, surpassing tron after months of tight competition on the Stablecoins market.
- Daily transactions on Ethereum approach 1 million, showing a high use of the USDT for payments and regulations.
- The institutions promote the DEFI and the Ethereum infrastructure rather than the lower costs of the tron, strengthening its dominance.
- Other channels such as BSC, Solana, Polygon and Arbitrum do not represent more than $ 10 billion in USDT each, far behind Ethereum and Tron.
Ethereum takes over the transactions in USDT
The Block data show that Ethereum processes nearly a million transactions per day, suggesting that participants are not content to hold USDT, but actively use it for payments and regulations.
At the beginning of the year, Tron held a clear advance in the Dominance USDT While the use of Ethereum decreased. Since the end of April, however, Ethereum has experienced regular resurgence, ultimately exceeding Tron in August.


Despite their tight competition, this change in progress highlights how even small dominance advantages can influence capital flows.
With each holding less than $ 10 billion, other channels – notably BNB Chain (BSC), Solana, Polygon and Arbitrum – represent more modest shares of the total offer. Although these networks are experiencing healthy growth, their combined share remains a fraction of the total compared to Ethereum and Tron.
Institutions and DEFI feed the movement of stablecoins from Tron
The resurgence of Ethereum suggests that users favor its established defi ecosystem and its institutional quality infrastructure rather than lower tron transaction costs. Experts believe that this tilting is also driven by a renewed activity in the DEFI protocols, as well as by institutional adoption via ETF and corporate cash.
This change comes as traditional financial institutions are increasingly integrated into the infrastructure of payment of stablecoins. Companies like Paypal (with Pyusd) and other major players incorporate stablecoins into their ecosystems. Many of these companies lean towards the more established institutional presence of Ethereum.
With a total offer of USDT exceeding $ 100 billion in all channels, the competition between Ethereum and Tron remains at the heart of the dynamics of the Stablecoins market. Industry observers monitor if Ethereum can consolidate its advance or if Tron will resume first place in the coming months.
