The field of cryptocurrency has moved beyond Ethereum and Bitcoin, with new breakthroughs trying to overcome some of the drawbacks of established cryptocurrencies. Among the most significant breakthroughs of these is the unassuming stablecoin. Most established cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin are quite volatile, but stablecoins possess an element of price stability that makes them ideal for everyday use, trading, and foreign exchange. Two of the world's most distributed stablecoins currently are USDT and USDC, both playing distinct roles in shifting global financial systems.
