# Stablecoins

> Supply, transfer volume, active users and transaction counts for stablecoins

Artemis tracks stablecoin supply, transfer volume, active users and transaction counts from on-chain issuance and transfer data. Supply is a closing-balance snapshot of circulating tokens; transfer volume and transaction counts are daily sums of on-chain transfer activity; active users is a daily average of unique transacting addresses. For source and calculation detail, see [Stablecoin metrics methodology](/docs/data-reference/stablecoin-methodology).

## Metrics

| Metric | Label | Unit | Aggregation |
| - | - | - | - |
| `STABLECOIN_SUPPLY` | Stablecoin Supply | Currency | `FIRST` |
| `STABLECOIN_TRANSFER_VOLUME` | Stablecoin Transfer Volume | Currency | `SUM` |
| `STABLECOIN_DAU` | Stablecoin Daily Active Users | Nominal | `AVERAGE` |
| `STABLECOIN_DAILY_TXNS` | Stablecoin Transactions | Nominal | `SUM` |

<Note>
  `STABLECOIN_SUPPLY` is a closing-balance snapshot: a period bucket carries that period's **last** day. For `usdc` in June 2026, the `granularity=MONTH` bucket returns \$74,677,768,139, June 30th's value.
</Note>

## Covered stablecoins

Artemis covers 119 stablecoins. Leading by supply on 2026-08-01:

| Stablecoin | Supply |
| - | - |
| USDT | \$184.22B |
| USDC | \$73.34B |
| USDS | \$6.28B |
| USD1 | \$3.98B |
| DAI | \$3.85B |
| USDe | \$3.55B |
| USYC | \$3.02B |
| PYUSD | \$2.68B |
| Tether Gold | \$2.53B |
| USDY | \$1.88B |
| Paxos Gold | \$1.79B |
| BUIDL | \$1.72B |

For the full list, filter [`GET /asset/`](/docs/artemis-api/discovery) by sector.

## Example: Supply, transfer volume and active users

```bash theme={null}
curl -s "https://data-svc.artemisxyz.com/v2/data/STABLECOIN_SUPPLY,STABLECOIN_TRANSFER_VOLUME,STABLECOIN_DAU?symbols=usdt,usdc,dai,usde&startDate=2026-08-01&endDate=2026-08-01&summarize=true&APIKey=$ARTEMIS_API_KEY"
```

| Stablecoin | Supply | Transfer volume | Active users |
| - | - | - | - |
| USDT | \$184.22B | \$28.25B | 3,155,414 |
| USDC | \$73.34B | \$82.78B | 1,039,965 |
| DAI | \$3.85B | \$1.14B | 111,987 |
| USDe | \$3.55B | \$0.18B | 1,237 |

USDC turns over more than its own supply in a single day; USDT turns over about 15% of its. That's a velocity comparison, not a ratio of like quantities: supply is a closing-balance snapshot and transfer volume is a daily `SUM`. `summarize=true` returns the `endDate` day's value for each metric here, not a period total. See [Core concepts](/docs/artemis-api/core-concepts).

## Split supply by chain

`dimensionType=CHAIN` breaks `STABLECOIN_SUPPLY` apart:

```bash theme={null}
curl -s "https://data-svc.artemisxyz.com/v2/data/STABLECOIN_SUPPLY?symbols=usdc&startDate=2026-08-01&endDate=2026-08-01&dimensionType=CHAIN&APIKey=$ARTEMIS_API_KEY"
```

USDC's \$73.34B on 2026-08-01 resolves across 29 chains, top ten:

| Chain | Supply | Share |
| - | - | - |
| Ethereum | \$48.59B | 66.3% |
| Solana | \$6.96B | 9.5% |
| Hyperevm | \$5.65B | 7.7% |
| Base | \$4.19B | 5.7% |
| Arbitrum | \$2.32B | 3.2% |
| Polygon PoS | \$1.74B | 2.4% |
| BNB Chain | \$1.63B | 2.2% |
| Avalanche C-Chain | \$0.48B | 0.6% |
| Sui | \$0.35B | 0.5% |
| Stellar | \$0.28B | 0.4% |

All 29 rows sum to \$73,339,893,117.60, exactly the undifferentiated `STABLECOIN_SUPPLY` total for `usdc` on the same day, so this cut is a clean partition.
