Tether 在 Tron 区块链上铸造 10 亿美元 USDT，但代币仍处于“授权但未发行”状态

新铸造的代币已经可以使用，但仍处于“已授权但未发行”状态，这意味着新增的 10 亿美元 USDT 不会影响 Tether 的市值。

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

全球最大的稳定币发行商 Tether 刚刚在 Tron 区块链上又铸造了 10 亿美元的 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.

由于当今市场对稳定币的巨大需求，尤其是在经济不稳定的国家，公民选择交易和持有稳定币而不是当地货币。此外，稳定币也对外贸产生影响。

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.

尽管 Tether 已成为全球最大的稳定币发行商，但其市场影响力仍在不断扩大。新铸造的代币已经可以使用，但仍处于“已授权但未发行”状态，这意味着新增的 10 亿美元 USDT 不会影响 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，过去几年稳定币的储备持续快速扩大。 2023 年，Tether 发行了超过 160 亿美元的 USDT，仅今年该公司就已经发行了 240 亿美元。

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.

这种不断增长的铸币活动与当今市场对稳定币的需求不断增长相吻合。在世界各地，经济不稳定国家的公民都选择交易和持有 USDT 等稳定币，而不是当地货币。此外，稳定币也对外贸产生影响，阿根廷和土耳其等国家越来越多地使用 USDT 进行国际交易。

Regulatory Concerns

监管问题

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 不断增长的储备也受到了包括美国证券交易委员会在内的一些人的批评。在过去几年中，SEC 对支持 USDT 的 Tether 储备的透明度表示担忧。 CFTC 甚至对这家加密货币公司处以 4100 万美元的罚款，原因是该公司在支持稳定币的现金金额方面提供了误导性信息。

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，重要的是要强调该公司的成功和盈利能力。乘着近年来的“稳定币热潮”，Tether 在 2024 年第一季度实现了 45.2 亿美元的盈利，而目前已经实现了更为可观的收益。鉴于 USDT 的效用持续增长，尽管监管审查持续不断，但 Tether 的美元挂钩及其在加密货币市场的影响力可能不会动摇
