Yield-Bearing Stablecoin Market Surges 13-Fold to $10 Billion Amid Regulatory Shifts

The yield-bearing stablecoin market has expanded dramatically, growing from $666 million in August 2023 to $8.98 billion by May 2025—a 13-fold increase. At its peak in February 2025, the sector briefly eclipsed $10.8 billion in total supply, according to Stablewatch data.

Unlike traditional stablecoins, yield-bearing variants generate returns through staking, lending, or bond investments. This growth comes as institutional interest rises and regulators scrutinize the space more closely. The market’s resilience suggests demand for passive income mechanisms in crypto remains robust despite evolving compliance pressures.
