$60 Million USDT Already Issued On TON, Great Start, Says CEO

Tether (USDT), the world’s largest stablecoin, has swiftly entered The Open Network (TON) with $60 million worth of USDT already deployed on the blockchain.
The collaboration between Tether and the TON Foundation was announced just two days earlier at the Token2049 conference in Dubai.
USDT’s Strong Start on TON
Within a short span, $60 million worth of USDT has been issued on The Open Network (TON), positioning the blockchain as the 11th largest out of 16 blockchains supporting USDT. This significant milestone follows Tether’s announcement of its partnership with the TON Foundation during the Token2049 conference. Tether’s CEO, Paolo Ardoino, expressed satisfaction with the collaboration, initially reporting $35 million worth of USDT issuance, which has since been updated to $60 million in the Tether Transparency Report.
This integration holds considerable implications for Telegram users, offering instant and free cross-border payments. With USDT now available on TON, users can seamlessly conduct transactions without requiring a blockchain address or downloading separate applications. Telegram emphasizes that this integration will streamline money transfers, likening it to sending a direct message.
Fully Integrated On-Ramps
USDT on TON will seamlessly integrate with major fiat currencies, ensuring convenient on-ramping for users. Additionally, plans for off-ramping functionalities are underway, enabling users to convert USDT back to their preferred fiat currency and withdraw it to their bank account or card. Despite TON’s recent addition, a significant portion of USDT’s $109.8 billion circulating supply remains on the Tron Network, accounting for around $57 billion, followed by Ethereum with approximately $51 billion in USDT. Ethereum’s share has decreased as Tether seeks to mitigate Ethereum’s high network fees. Meanwhile, Solana hosts $1.9 billion worth of USDT.
Market Dominance
USDT continues to dominate the stablecoin market, holding an impressive 69% share valued at approximately $159.5 billion. Its closest competitor, Circle’s USD Coin (USDC), commands around 21% of the market, with $33 billion in circulation. The announcement also sparked a positive reaction in the price of Toncoin (TON), witnessing a 22% increase initially, although it quickly reverted to previous levels. Currently, TON is trading at $6.16, representing a 1.59% decline over the past 24 hours.
