USDC vs Tether: what the numbers say

At the latest snapshot, 1 USDC = 1 USDT.

By market capitalisation, Tether is the larger network — about 2.5× the size of USDC 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 1.63% while USDT is up 1.58% — 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 Tether on AUSTRAC-registered exchanges such as CoinSpot, Independent Reserve, Swyftx and Kraken AU. Each disposal — including swapping USDC for USDT — is a CGT event under ATO guidance, so keep records of the AUD value at the time of every trade.
