Tether Mints Over $33 Billion in USDT Across Tron and Ethereum
Blockchain data reveals that Tether, the company behind the stablecoin USDT, has created over $33 billion worth of USDT in the past year.
According to recent data , this massive amount of USDT was issued across both the Tron ( TRX ) and Ethereum ( ETH ) networks.
“Tether Treasury minted another 1 billion USDT on the Tron Network! In total, Tether has minted 33 billion USDT in the last year, with 19 billion on Tron and 14 billion on Ethereum,” the firm reported yesterday.
Crypto analyst Ali Martinez highlighted a notable connection between Bitcoin’s price movements and the minting of new USDT. “Tether acts like the crypto world’s central bank. Every time more USDT is produced, the market tends to rise. During the latest Bitcoin dip, those USDT printers were running non-stop!” he said.
Additionally, Tether recently announced that USDT will soon be available on Aptos (APT), a blockchain designed for speed and scalability. Aptos, which uses a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, processes transactions in parallel to improve efficiency. Tether also noted that transaction fees on Aptos will be less than a penny.
