Tether 在 Tron 區塊鏈上鑄造 10 億美元 USDT，但代幣仍處於「授權但未發行」狀態

新鑄造的代幣已經可以使用，但仍處於「授權但未發行」狀態，這意味著新增的 10 億美元 USDT 不會影響 Tether 的市值。

Tether, the world's largest stablecoin issuer, has just minted another $1 billion USDT on the Tron blockchain.

全球最大的穩定幣發行商 Tether 剛剛在 Tron 區塊鏈上鑄造了 10 億美元的 USDT。

With a massive demand for stablecoins in the market today, especially in economically unstable countries, citizens are opting to trade and hold stablecoins instead of their local currency. Also, stablecoins are also having an impact on foreign trade.

由於當今市場對穩定幣的巨大需求，尤其是在經濟不穩定的國家，公民選擇交易並持有穩定幣而不是當地貨幣。此外，穩定幣也對外貿產生影響。

Despite already being established as the largest stablecoin issuer in the world, Tether continues to expand its influence on the market. The newly minted tokens are already available to use, however, they are still under the “authorized but not issued” status, meaning that the new billion USDT won't impact Tether’s market capitalization.

儘管 Tether 已成為全球最大的穩定幣發行商，但其市場影響力仍在擴大。新鑄造的代幣已經可以使用，但仍處於「授權但未發行」狀態，這意味著新增的 10 億美元 USDT 不會影響 Tether 的市值。

Moreover, the stablecoin has continued to rapidly expand its reserves over the last few years. In 2023, Tether issued over $16 billion USDT, and this year alone the company has already issued $24 billion.

此外，過去幾年穩定幣的儲備持續快速擴大。 2023 年，Tether 發行了超過 160 億美元的 USDT，光是今年該公司就已經發行了 240 億美元。

This growing minting activity coincides with a growing demand for stablecoins in the market today. All over the world, citizens of economically unstable countries are opting to trade and hold stablecoins like USDT instead of their local currency. Also, stablecoins are also having an impact on foreign trade, with countries like Argentina and Turkey increasingly using USDT for international transactions.

這種不斷增長的鑄幣活動與當今市場對穩定幣的需求不斷增長相吻合。在世界各地，經濟不穩定國家的公民都選擇交易和持有 USDT 等穩定幣，而不是當地貨幣。此外，穩定幣也對外貿產生影響，阿根廷和土耳其等國家也越來越多地使用 USDT 進行國際交易。

Regulatory Concerns

監管問題

Tether's growing reserves are also grounds for criticism by some – including the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Over the last few years, the SEC has shown concerns regarding the transparency of Tether's reserves backing USDT. The CFTC went as far as fining the crypto company for $41 million for misleading information regarding the amount of cash backing the stablecoin.

Tether 不斷增長的儲備也受到了包括美國證券交易委員會在內的一些人的批評。在過去幾年中，SEC 對支持 USDT 的 Tether 儲備的透明度表示擔憂。 CFTC 甚至對這家加密貨幣公司處以 4,100 萬美元的罰款，因為該公司在支持穩定幣的現金金額方面提供了誤導性資訊。

However, it is important to underscore just how successful and profitable the company has been. Riding the “stablecoin boom” of recent years, Tether profited $4.52 billion in 2024's Q1, and by now has seen even more substantial gains. Given that the utility for USDT continues to grow, Tether's dollar peg and its influence in the cryptocurrency market is likely to remain unshaken, despite ongoing regulatory scrutiny

然而，重要的是要強調該公司的成功和盈利能力。乘著近年來的“穩定幣熱潮”，Tether 在 2024 年第一季實現了 45.2 億美元的盈利，而目前已經實現了更可觀的收益。鑑於 USDT 的效用持續成長，儘管監管審查持續不斷，但 Tether 的美元掛鉤及其在加密貨幣市場的影響力可能不會動搖
