Tether continues to dominate the stablecoin market

The total stablecoin market cap grew ~42% in 2019 from $3.3B to $4.7B, with Tether dominance at ~80%

§ Unhindered by controversy over reserves and a NYAG investigation, Tether continued to dominate the stablecoin market in 2019.

o In 2019, the majority of new Tether issuance shifted away from Bitcoin and onto Ethereum (USDT_ETH) — which exacerbated congestion on the Ethereum blockchain

§ Excluding Tether, majority of the remaining growth came from USDC (+76% market cap) and Paxos (+50% market cap)
