  • Whale alert tweeted 999,455,988 USDT transferred from Tether to Binance.
  • USDT continues to dominate the stablecoin market.

On March 21 Tether minted 1 billion USDT on the Tron Network. This follows the billions of stablecoin that it has minted over the last week. In the last seven days, Tether has minted 4 billion USDT. 

Tether’s mintings have come as the stablecoin sector is facing increased competition, with Tether attempting to attract investors away from the other stablecoins. Tether has benefited from the issue USDC faced, with increasing minting demand for USDT. Tether may be one of the dominant stablecoin issuers in the market for now.
