How to Update Stablecoin Contract Addresses on CoinGecko

To maintain accurate risk profiles and asset characteristics, CoinGecko strictly differentiates between natively issued stablecoins and non-native (bridged) stablecoins. The process to update or add a stablecoin contract address depends entirely on which category your asset falls into.

Identify Your Stablecoin Type

Native Stablecoins 

These are stablecoins officially minted directly by the respective protocols or issuers (e.g., Tether treasury or Circle). Native stablecoin contracts are added directly to the official underlying token's existing page.

• Reference Lists: Native USDT | Native USDC

Non-Native (Bridged) Stablecoins 

These are stablecoins that are not minted by the official protocol/issuer, but are instead bridged by a third-party protocol. These are listed separately as entirely new tokens.

• Reference Lists: Bridged USDT | Bridged USDC

Submission Process

Please follow the appropriate steps below based on your stablecoin's classification:

A. For Non-Native / Bridged Stablecoins

If your stablecoin is an unofficial or bridged asset, you must submit it as a brand-new listing.

1. Access the Form: Submit a New Coin Listing request using our self-serve request form.

2. Fill Mandatory Fields: Complete all required fields. (For help, refer to our guide, [How to list new cryptocurrencies on CoinGecko?], on listing submission procedures.)

3. Follow Naming Conventions: You must accurately follow our naming methodology for bridged assets.

   • Format: {protocol/issuer-name} Bridged {token-ticker} ({network})

   • Examples: Axelar Bridged USDC (Celo) or Axelar Bridged USDC (Linea).

   • Resource: Review our [CoinGecko Asset Naming Methodology] for further guidance.

B. For Native / Official Stablecoins

If your stablecoin is officially minted by the issuer (e.g., Circle or Tether), you need to request a contract addition to the existing asset page.

1. Access the Form: Submit a Detail Update request using our self-serve request form.

2. Select Category: Choose 'New Contract Address Addition' from the dropdown menu.

3. Provide Verifiable Proof: This is mandatory. You must submit verifiable announcements, official articles, or links that definitively prove your stablecoin contract is officially minted by the respective issuer. Our team will only proceed with the update if these links are independently verifiable.

Upon successful submission, you will receive an email containing your specific Ticket ID:
