A recent study by TRM Labs has revealed that stablecoins were involved in 60% of illicit cryptocurrency transactions in the first quarter of 2025. Despite this, 99% of stablecoin activity remains legitimate. The report also noted a significant 83% increase in stablecoin transaction volumes year-on-year, surpassing $4 trillion from January to July 2025. The prevalence of illicit activity is linked to the low costs, speed, and widespread availability of stablecoins on blockchains such as Tron and Ethereum. The study further highlights India as the leading country in crypto adoption, with the United States following closely. South Asia is identified as the region with the fastest growth in cryptocurrency usage.
