儘管 2024 年 USDC 市值飆升 79%，但 USDC 的市值仍落後於 Tether

然而，USDC 的市值仍落後於 Tether 的 USDT。 Tether 仍然是使用最廣泛的穩定幣，2024 年市值小幅增長 50%

Stablecoin market dynamics shifted in 2024, with Tether (USDT) and Circle's USD Coin (USDC) remained at the forefront.

穩定幣市場動態在 2024 年發生了變化，Tether (USDT) 和 Circle 的美元代幣 (USDC) 仍然位居前列。

According to market cap data from CoinGecko, USDT saw a moderate 50% increase, reaching $137.5 billion by the end of the year. Meanwhile, USDC experienced a significant surge, with its market cap growing from $24.4 billion to $43.9 billion, indicating a 79% increase.

根據 CoinGecko 的市值數據，USDT 溫和成長 50%，截至年底達到 1,375 億美元。與此同時，USDC 經歷了大幅飆升，市值從 244 億美元增長至 439 億美元，增幅達 79%。

Despite this substantial gain, USDC still remained about 22% below its all-time market cap high of $55.9 billion, which was recorded in June 2022.

儘管漲幅巨大，但 USDC 仍比 2022 年 6 月創下的歷史最高市值 559 億美元低約 22%。

Circle's annual report attributed this growth to strategic partnerships, highlighting its collaboration with Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, to enhance USDC's accessibility for trading and payments.

Circle 的年度報告將這一增長歸功於戰略合作夥伴關係，強調其與全球最大的加密貨幣交易所幣安的合作，以增強 USDC 的交易和支付便利性。

During Abu Dhabi Finance Week in December, Binance and Circle announced their joint efforts to support the stablecoin's growth in digital financial services.

在 12 月的阿布達比金融週期間，幣安和 Circle 宣布共同努力支持穩定幣在數位金融服務領域的成長。

Moreover, Circle's partnerships extended beyond Binance, as the company worked with MoneyGram and Chipper Cash to provide seamless on-ramps for converting USDC into local currencies.

此外，Circle 的合作夥伴關係不僅限於幣安，還與速匯金 (MoneyGram) 和 Chipper Cash 合作，為將 USDC 兌換成當地貨幣提供無縫通道。

Coinbase, which played a pivotal role in launching USDC with Circle, also made headlines by reshaping the stablecoin market in Europe.

Coinbase 在與 Circle 合作推出 USDC 過程中發揮了關鍵作用，它也因重塑歐洲穩定幣市場而成為頭條新聞。

Coinbase's European operation took steps to delist USDT and other stablecoins that didn't adhere to MiCA (Markets in Crypto Assets) compliance. A company announcement highlighted that regulatory mandates necessitated the removal of certain digital assets from its platform.

Coinbase 的歐洲業務已採取措施，將 USDT 和其他不符合 MiCA（加密資產市場）合規性的穩定幣下架。公司公告強調，監管要求有必要從其平台上刪除某些數位資產。

In addition to USDC's impressive growth in 2024, Circle's report also highlighted promising opportunities for further expansion in areas such as global payroll, supplier payments and point-of-sale solutions.

除了 USDC 在 2024 年實現令人印象深刻的成長外，Circle 的報告還強調了在全球薪資、供應商支付和銷售點解決方案等領域進一步擴張的良好機會。

Furthermore, Circle's euro-backed stablecoin, EURC, gained momentum in 2024, with weekly transfer volumes exceeding $1 billion.

此外，Circle 的歐元支持穩定幣 EURC 在 2024 年勢頭強勁，每週轉帳量超過 10 億美元。

As we look to the future, Circle anticipates increased regulatory developments in countries like the U.K., Brazil, Singapore and Japan. A Circle spokesperson mentioned that these regulatory frameworks will ensure that stablecoin issuers, like Circle, operate under consistent and high standards worldwide.

展望未來，Circle 預計英國、巴西、新加坡和日本等國家的監管將會加強。 Circle 發言人提到，這些監管框架將確保像 Circle 這樣的穩定幣發行人在全球範圍內按照一致且高的標準運作。
