The stablecoin registry is Allium’s source of truth for stablecoin product and deployment metadata. It’s split into two grains:
  • stablecoins.registry.deployments — one row per (chain, address). Use this to resolve a specific on-chain contract/mint to its product, issuer, and peg metadata.
  • stablecoins.registry.catalog — one row per product (e.g. USDC), independent of chain. Use this for product-level rollups and issuer-level analysis.
Unique Key: stablecoins.registry.deploymentschain, address. stablecoins.registry.catalogproduct_id.

Sample Query

Resolve a token address to its product and issuer, and check whether it’s a native or bridged deployment

Table Columns

crosschain.stablecoin.list is deprecated in favor of stablecoins.registry.deployments above (per-chain deployment grain, join to stablecoins.registry.catalog for product/issuer metadata). crosschain.stablecoin.catalog and crosschain.stablecoin.deployments are likewise deprecated in favor of stablecoins.registry.catalog and stablecoins.registry.deployments respectively.The legacy list includes a curated list of stablecoins with various denominations. This list is used to identify the list of stablecoins included in the crosschain.stablecoin.transfers table.Unique Key: chain, address

Stablecoins can be broadly classified into their underlying peg mechanism.They can be fiat-backed, commodity-backed, algorithmic, crypto-backed (DAI), or a hybrid of many.For fiat-backed stablecoins, there is often a regulated entity involved in the issuance and management of the stablecoin ensuring its stability and value. These entity-issued stablecoins are said to be “native”.Using USDC as an example, there are multiple variants of USDC:
  • A native stablecoin refers to a stablecoin issued directly from a regulated entity such as Circle, which is redeemable for the underlying asset (be it US Dollars, Euros, etc). Circle maintains a list of their native stablecoins here.
  • A bridged stablecoin refers to a stablecoin that is issued by a third-party application (e.g. Wormhole, Axelar, etc.) issued by locking a native stablecoin in a smart contract on one blockchain to mint a bridged stablecoin on another blockchain.
  • A defi variant stablecoin refers to a stablecoin issued by a decentralized application (e.g. Compound, Aave, etc.) and is backed by the underlying collateral assets in the protocol. One example is Aave interest-bearing USDC (aUSDC).
The base_asset field in the stablecoin list aims to capture the underlying stablecoin of a token. For example, Axelar USDC, Aave USDC, and Bridged USDC.e on Avalanche will all be labelled as usdc its base_asset.
