The search for stablecoins on Google has reached new heights since President Trump signed the GENIUS Act into law.
The president of the United States, Donald Trump recently passed the Stablecoin Bill and the Genius Act to help clear the regulatory path for crypto and stablecoins in specific.
This bill specifically outlines a key point on CBDCs. The federal government is now blocked from creating and issuing the digital dollar.
Before 2025, the last time the term stablecoins ever climbed up Google Searches was in May 2022 when Terra Luna’s stablecoin collapsed wiping off half the cryptocurrency market.
Recent data shows a significant spike in Google Trends for ‘stablecoins’ in mid-June and mid-July, coinciding with the signing of the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act into law on July 18, 2025.

Stablecoin Market Surging Parabolically
The total market capitalization of stablecoins has hit an all-time high of $272 billion, representing approximately 7% of the entire crypto market, according to CoinGecko.
US dollar-pegged stablecoins make up the vast majority, around 98% of the total, with Tether alone accounting for a dominant 60% of the market.
Ethereum treasury firm SharpLink noted the market’s trajectory, stating,
“You can’t spell ‘stablecoins’ without ‘parabolic’.”
Crypto Becoming The Hedge To Volatile Markets
Chief Strategy Officer, CoinW exchange, Nassar Al Achkar told Cointelegraph,
“The demand is driven by their utility in cross-border payments and as a safe haven during market uncertainty, while “numerous institutions are announcing the launch of their own stablecoins.”
Despite newer laws and regulatory laws changing there is still an unsettling spike in the demand for stables and tokenized assets. For example, Tether unveiled their Gold backed stablecoin XAUt0 in June, 2025.
The stablecoin market has also inspired the RWA – Real World Asset tokenization market where much like how the US Dollar is replaced by stablecoins like USDT and USDC.
