Google Searches for Stablecoins Reaches New All-Time High

Google search data has shown that the interest in stablecoin has reached an all-time high this month, reflecting explosive market growth and increasing mainstream curiosity spurred by landmark US regulation and institutional entry.

According to Google Trends, the search of stablecoin has outperformed the peak back in 2022, when the the interest for stablecoin peaked following the depeg of the Terra algorithmic stablecoin and the collapse of the Luna ecosystem.

The spike in searches began in mid-June and accelerated sharply after the Guiding and Empowering Nation’s Innovation for US Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act was passed into law on July 18.

Crypto analyst The DeFi Investor voiced him optimism regarding the growing interest in stablecoin, saying more and more people are starting to realise the true potential of stablecoin.

"People are waking up to their potential. Stablecoins are the product that can onboard the first billion people on-chain."

Stablecoin Market Goes Parabolic

The growing interest in stablecoins has also resulted in a parabolic growth for stablecoins in 2025. Stablecoin total market capitalisation has hit a record high of $272 billion, which equates to around 7% of the total crypto market capitalisation.

A vast majority of these stablecoins (98%) are pegged to the U.S dollar, and Tether is the market-dominant issuer with a share of 60%.

Stablecoins As A Bulwark Against Volatility

Nassar Al Achkar, chief strategy officer at CoinW exchange, notes that stablecoins’ growth is fueled by their appeal as a hedge against crypto volatility.

He adds that the demand is driven by its utility in cross-border payments and as a safe heaven during market uncertainty.

He also observed increasing numbers of traditional finance firms and corporations who are announcing their own stablecoin initiatives or digital asset reserve strategies in response to investor demand for safer, easily integrated crypto solutions.

"Although many companies are embarking on digital asset reserve strategies, others may look to integrate or launch their own stablecoins to satisfy investors' interests while maintaining a safer approach to connecting with the crypto industry."

As stablecoin searches and market cap push to new heights, the sector is poised to play a pivotal role in bringing the first billion users on-chain.

With robust legal frameworks and growing institutional support, stablecoins are solidifying their status as one of the crypto industry’s most functional and accessible products.
