The transfer volume of stablecoins on Ethereum (ETH) has reached new highs totaling $8 trillion in the last quarter of 2025. This represents significant growth compared to the previous quarter which recorded only $4 trillion. This growth demonstrates the widespread adoption of global on-chain payments.

In addition, the number of monthly active addresses on Ethereum (ETH) also reached a new peak with a total of 10.4 million addresses in December. This increase shows that more and more users are utilizing Ethereum (ETH) for their various digital transaction needs.

Ethereum’s Dominance in Real Asset Tokenization

Ethereum (ETH) remains the primary settlement layer for stablecoins and real asset tokenization (RWA), holding around 65% market share of the total on-chain RWA value of around $19 billion. This market dominance even increases to over 70% when layer-2 networks and EVMs are included in the equation.

In the context of stablecoin issuance, Ethereum (ETH) has a market share of 57%, with the Tron network in second place with 27%. Tether (USDT) remains the market leader in issuance with $187 billion, which is 60% of the entire stablecoin market, and more than half of that is on Ethereum (ETH).

Bright Future for Ethereum

With new records set in transfer volumes and transaction amounts, as well as a significant increase in stablecoin issuance, the future of Ethereum (ETH) looks very bright. The network is not only the top choice for stablecoin transactions, but also the leading platform for tokenization of real assets. The growing trust and adoption from users suggests that Ethereum (ETH) will continue to play an important role in the global digital finance ecosystem.
