- Matrixport confirmed that new money is flowing into the stablecoin market.
- The firm used the 7-day stablecoin minting indicator.
- More money is expected to flow in the crypto market in Q1, 2025.
Digital asset financial services firm Matrixport stated on X that stablecoin minting has increased significantly, suggesting that investors are investing in crypto. The market cap of USDT and other stablecoins has also risen in the past 30 days.
Matrixport highlighted its 7-day stablecoin minting indicator as the “most bullish signal” in the digital asset space. This indicator measures the amount of capital flowing into stablecoins weekly and is currently making higher highs, indicating significant capital inflow into the sector.
Increased stablecoin minting means increased demand. Stablecoins bridge the digital asset space and traditional finance. Therefore, if the minting of these blockchain-based tokens increases, bullish sentiment also increases. Historical data supports this.
USDT Market Cap and Circulation Surge
The chart below shows that the market cap of Tether USD (USDT) has surged over the past year. The market cap rose from $87.7 billion to $127.53 billion. The number of USDT tokens in circulation is also rising.
Coinglass data shows that on November 18th last year, 87.6 billion USDT tokens were in circulation. Now, there are 119.7 billion USDT stablecoins in circulation.
More Inflows Expected
Matrixport added that substantial price increases with low selling pressure indicate that new money is entering the stablecoin market. However, history shows that inflows are strong in the first quarter of the year.
As a result, it is possible that the crypto market will witness additional inflows in the first quarter of 2025 with Bitcoin (BTC) possibly breaking the $100,000 price level while altcoins witness monumental gains.
