USDC vs Dai: what the numbers say
At the latest snapshot, 1 USDC = 1 DAI.
By market capitalisation, USDC is the larger network — about 17.6× the size of Dai in AUD terms. Larger caps generally mean deeper liquidity on Australian exchanges and tighter spreads, while smaller caps can move more sharply on news or thin order books.
Over the past seven days, USDC is up 1.39% while DAI is up 1.39% — the two are moving in lockstep. Short-term percentage moves show momentum but say nothing about long-term value.
Australian buyers can trade both USDC and Dai on AUSTRAC-registered exchanges such as CoinSpot, Independent Reserve, Swyftx and Kraken AU. Each disposal — including swapping USDC for DAI — is a CGT event under ATO guidance, so keep records of the AUD value at the time of every trade.
