Everyday payments have emerged as the most rapidly expanding application for stablecoins, distinctly surpassing trading and DeFi in user adoption. Insights from @Paymentscan indicate that card purchases funded by stablecoins roughly tripled in the past year, culminating in $1.227B in transaction volume across 11.7M individual card swipes in September alone, which equates to an average of about $105 per purchase.

USDC and USDT hold the vast majority of this market share, while the euro is also gaining traction through EURC, albeit at a much earlier developmental stage.
