Stablecoin issuance is a lucrative business, and in 2025, Hyperliquid, a leading decentralized derivatives trading platform generating at least $400 billion in trading volume, is set to launch its platform-specific stablecoin. While Circle’s USDC holds a larger market share, powering popular trading pairs like HYPE USDC, Hyperliquid believes a native stablecoin could funnel profits to HYPE crypto holders.

According to Coingecko, the total stablecoin market cap exceeds $290 billion. USDT leads, commanding nearly 50% of the market with over $169 billion in circulation, primarily on Tron and Ethereum. USDC, the second largest, has issued over $72 billion, with a major presence on Solana and Hyperliquid.

Due to its ease of redemption back to USD, USDC is the go-to stablecoin, powering Hyperliquid’s community-driven liquidity provision, enabling the platform to process billions in monthly trading volume. Circle issues USDC in compliance with U.S. regulations, clarified further by the GENIUS Act, which outlines requirements for stablecoin issuers tracking the USD on major public chains.
