The crypto market is facing challenges as Bitcoin has dropped below $97,000, and Ether is trading around $2,600. Other major altcoins like XRP, Solana, BNB, Dogecoin, Cardano, and Tron are also following the downward trend of Bitcoin and Ether. In the last 24 hours, the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies fell by 1.29%.

Despite this decline, Tether’s USDT stablecoin is making headlines. It reached an all-time high market cap of $141.76 billion, marking a significant milestone. USDT is known for maintaining its value against the US dollar and has seen sharp increases in its market cap over time.

Several factors are driving the adoption of USDT. Recently, Tether formed a partnership with Reelly Tech, a prominent real estate B2B platform in the UAE. The UAE is recognized for its strong crypto regulations and innovation, which could enhance Tether’s global presence.

In the United States, there is growing interest in regulating the stablecoin market. Officials from the US Financial Committee have introduced a House Bill focused on stablecoin regulations. Similarly, the UK has announced plans to implement its own stablecoin regulations.

The newly established Presidential Working Group is also looking into the concept of a “Bitcoin strategic reserve.” As stablecoin regulations progress, the US White House Crypto & AI Czar has highlighted the potential of stablecoins to boost dollar dominance.
