Circle and Tether, the leading stablecoin issuers, minted $3 billion in new tokens over two days, reflecting ongoing high demand for dollar liquidity on blockchain networks. Tether added $1 billion to its USDT supply, now around $183 billion, while Circle's USDC supply rose modestly by $100 million to about $71.9 billion due to heavy minting and redemption activity.
