USDT and USDC are the most common QUOTE assets because people think in terms of fiat.

Arcane or Exotic Trading pairs do not use an stable coin as a QUOTE asset, which makes it harder to develol a notion of price levels.

Imagine seeing prices in terms of BTC ETH SOL BNB instead of USDT.

That is why some traders focus on the simplest of pairs, USDT/USDC USDT/FDUSD

which is expected to be 1:1.
