USDT or USDC for settlement
Both aim at one dollar. They get there differently.

Tether and USD Coin are both dollar stablecoins, and at the desk we quote both against US dollars. The difference that matters to a treasurer is who your counterparties already use.
USDT has the wider use in trade flows across Central Asia. USDC is more common where a counterparty asks for monthly reserve attestations. If your supplier names one, use that one. Converting between them costs two commissions.
