So, crypto is like that quiet kid in class, right? You think nothing’s happening, but there’s a ton of cash just chilling in stablecoins. I mean, come on, people aren’t exactly racing to the exit here. What’s going on? A big move? Or are they just enjoying the view?
Look at All Those Stablecoins on Binance!
According to CryptoQuant, Binance’s stablecoin reserves have ballooned to about $47.5 billion. That’s a giant slice of the liquidity pie-like, where’s my fork? You know what I’m saying?

Meanwhile, other exchanges like OKX, Coinbase, and Bybit are basically stuck in neutral, not really adding much. It’s like watching your friends try to keep up with you on a treadmill-good luck with that! Binance is now holding around 65% of all the stablecoins out there. They’re practically swimming in it!

Sure, there are short-term flows going up and down like a rollercoaster, but capital keeps doing the old boomerang thing back to Binance. It’s got some serious gravitational pull.

And let’s be real-most of this liquidity comes from Tether [USDT], with Circle’s USD Coin [USDC] playing the role of the understudy. You know, just hanging out in the background.
Regulation: The Door Opener
This whole situation didn’t just happen because someone felt like it one day. No, no, my friends. This is unfolding as the U.S. gears up for a major regulatory makeover that might just change the game for crypto. And we all love a good makeover, don’t we?

XWIN Research Japan reports that the total supply of ERC20 stablecoins has crossed $150 billion. It’s like they’ve recovered from a bad breakup and are finally getting their life together again-nearly back to previous highs. Supply has been creeping up as we roll into 2026, almost like it’s playing hard to get.
And guess what? AMBCrypto was all over this, reporting that Japan has now stolen the spotlight from Singapore as APAC’s biggest local stablecoin hub. How’s that for a plot twist?
The yen-linked JPYC supply has climbed to about $26.4 million, giving the region a nice boost, bouncing back to nearly $60 million. Sure, dollar-backed tokens are still the main characters, but there’s definitely a demand for those currency-specific stablecoins. Who doesn’t like options?
With the GENIUS Act, passed in 2025, set to roll out after the 2026 midterm elections, we might see clearer rules for stablecoins. And you know what they say-when stablecoin supplies go up, market rallies often follow. So maybe we should start thinking about packing our bags for a potential vacation to good times ahead, huh?
Final Summary
- Investors are getting a head start on the next crypto market cycle.
- Stablecoin regulation post-2026 U.S. midterms could unlock the next big boom.
