Tether, the premier stablecoin cryptocurrency has minted one billion worth of USDT stablecoins this month, which is the largest increase in the coin’s history.

60,000,000 USDT ($59,984,149 USD) on 4/1 60,000,000 USDT ($59,854,340 USD) on 4/2 120,000,000 USDT ($120,867,807 USD) on 4/6 120,000,000 USDT ($120,188,699 USD) on 4/13 120,000,000 USDT ($119,950,661 USD) on 4/14 120,000,000 USDT ($120,474,772 USD) on 4/16 120,000,000 USDT ($120,440,672 USD) on 4/18 120,000,000 USDT ($120,224,140 USD) on 4/21 120,000,000 USDT ($120,330,278 USD) on 4/22 6,000,000 USDT ($6,057,189 USD) on 4/23 7,000,000 USDT ($7,027,824 USD) on 4/24 4,000,000 USDT ($3,985,877 USD) on 4/24 7,000,000 USDT ($7,065,606 USD) on 4/24 15,000,000 USDT ($15,146,726 USD) on 4/27 5,000,000 USDT ($5,018,105 USD) on 4/27 8,000,000 USDT ($7,982,039 USD) on 4/27 120,000,000 USDT ($121,232,432 USD) on 4/27 120,000,000 USDT ($121,137,048 USD) on 4/27 9,000,000 USDT ($8,996,530 USD) on 4/27 30,000,000 USDT ($30,230,670 USD) on 4/27 50,000,000 USDT ($50,217,501 USD) on 4/28 60,000,000 USDT ($60,129,355 USD) on 4/29

Totalling 1.401 Billion USDT ~ $1.406 Billion in USD

When a large number of stablecoins like Tether (USDT) flood the market like this it’s often a sign that bitcoin could be due to make a large move to the upside, especially with the impending halving event that’s due to occur in approximately 1,844 blocks.

Bitcoin has also moved in step with the issuance of Tethers. The coin rose from $6,400 to a high of $8,300, which is almost a 30 percent increase.

Year to date, Tether printed $3.1 billion USDT. This includes $120 million in Feb and $1.4 billion in March alone. Other cryptocurrencies minted far less coins. USD Coin (USDC) minted only $250 million, Paxos Standard (PAX) minted $20 million and Binance USD (BUSD) minted $180 million.

Tether CTO Paolo Ardoino noted that the new Tethers were part of “inventory replenishes,” as reached out in the comment section of the Whale Alert Twitter.

“Note this is an authorized but not issued transaction, meaning that this amount will be used as inventory for next period issuance requests,” said Ardoino.
