Out of all regulated dollar-pegged cryptocurrency assets, USDC is presently the most sought-after stablecoin, according to market research firm Kaiko’s findings earlier this month.
Nevertheless, Kaiko also pointed out that unregulated stablecoins continue to rule the market; this might alter as a result of the EU’s Markets in Crypto-assets (MiCA) regulation.
Presently, 88% of all stablecoin volume is made up of non-compliant stablecoins, which dominate the market. MiCA has the potential to upset this equilibrium by encouraging compliant stablecoins over non-compliant ones on exchanges and among market makers.
