Tether USD on the Ethereum Blockchain: the most tradable ERC20 token!

Learn all about the USDT (ERC20) and its advantages.

After being enabled on 5th January 2018, Tether USD on the Ethereum blockchain has become the TOP #1 ERC20 token by market cap, trade volume, and the number of token-holders. Also, in the following paragraphs, you’ll learn what is USDT and why Eethereum is a preferable layer to transport Tether, how to trade it, and more. Besides, get a guide on how to buy USDT stablecoin with a bank card for your local fiat currency.

What is Tether USD on the Ethereum Blockchain

Tether USD on the Ethereum Blockchain is an ERC20 token issued on the basis of smart contract: 0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7.
Token name: Tether USD
Token symbol: USDT

By issuing USDT on the Etherum blockchain, the Tether Operations Limited claimed that every tether token is always 100% backed by company reserves. Such reserves may consist of the traditional US Dollars, cash equivalents, and other assets and receivables from loans made by Tether to third parties, which may include affiliated entities. The Tether company is always ready to convert every 1 USDT to 1 US dollar.

What is Tether USD market cap

Due to the CMC, the total Tether USD market cap is $4,647,908,834 (Rank 5). This amount includes all transport layers where Tether USD circulates. However, the highest impact (around 58.5%) on the market cap comes from the Ethereum blockchain. It makes Tether (ERC20) be the most preferable way of keeping Tether USD among all other layers.

What is Tether USD trade volume

Tether’s USD daily trade volume is around $43M on March 05, 2020. This is the top volume among all other +245,392 ERC20 tokens. Moreover, the 2nd most traded token has just $0.3M (by 143 times lower) daily trade volume. So huge trade volume means great liquidity. So, if you have USDT on Ethereum blockchain you can always sell it easily.

How many people use USDT

The current number of the Tether token-holders can be around +882k.

882k addresses hold USDT

However, because one person may have many wallets, you should look at the number of unique USDT senders. As you can see below, more and more people on different exchanges are starting to use Tether on the ERC20 layer. This is because Ethereum blockchain provides the most user-friendly way to accept and send US Dollars value that Tether USDT contains.

What are the transport layers for Tether USD

There are five layers enabled for Tether USD which you can use to transfer (transport) your Tether. If you want to deposit and withdraw Tether USD or use it for buying and selling cryptocurrencies, always double-check what transport layer is going to be used by an exchange. According to the Tether website, the Ethereum blockchain is the most usable layer for USDT. It supports 56% of the total Tether USD circulation.

Tether USD: ERC20 vs Omni

Omnilayer is the second popular layer for Tether transferring. The Omnilayer (Omni) is a decentralized asset platform based on the Bitcoin blockchain. Tether enabled on Omnilayer works like Ethereum and its tokens. However, you get four advantages when using Tether USD on Ethereum instead of Omnilayer:

  • Better compatibility with user-friendly wallets
  • Acceptability on most of the exchanges
  • Reduced network fees to transfer Tether
  • Faster withdrawing because of the short (15 seconds) Ethereum block confirmations.

DAI Сryptocurrency in the Ocean of Stablecoins

Know how to trade and earn Dai stablecoin that gives you a financial freedom with no volatility. Discover all its other advantages.

What is DAI

DAI is a completely decentralized stablecoin pegged to the US dollar. 1 Dai stablcoin = 1 USD. This is the first unbiased stablecoin in the World being soft-pegged to the US Dollar.

DAI advantages

The main advantages are:

  • Safety and stability
  • Anyone can issue
  • Growing adoption

What makes it safe and stable

Most popular stablecoins such as USDT and USDC are centralized and govern by its issuing companies. So, there are high risks that government authorities and banks will suddenly arrest and lock issuing companies’ assets on accounts. It could lead to the inability to exchange USDC or USDT to fiat USD or any other valuable cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, DAI is governed by Ethereum based smart contracts. These smart contracts collect collaterals (ETH, BAT, and other valuable cryptocurrencies, which the community chooses) from users who want to issue DAI. Therefore, it doesn’t depend on banks’ tight rules and crypto-negative politicians’ decisions because of being based on smart contracts. In addition, the usage of different assets pledged as collateral makes it more stable.

How to issue

Instead of simply buying DAI on exchanges, anyone can issue (create) it, in the five steps:

  1. Connect your wallet to Oasis app.
  2. Click on Get Started
  3. Select collateral (currently ETH or BAT)
  4. Walkthrough the vault management
  5. Generate it and confirm

The result, you will lock your crypto assets (ETH or BAT) as collateral to generate DAI.

IMPORTANT: the issuance of Dai is like borrowing that will have a cost called ‘stability fee’. Such a fee may vary. At the moment of writing the article, the fee is 8.00%.

What is DAI used for

Dai Stablecoin can be used for the following:

  • hold value without a bank account
  • protect a value if you leave in economies suffering high inflation rates
  • make mass payments to people in a borderless and the cheapest way

Regardless of bank holidays and other factors, you always have access to your value stored in DAI. You can easily transfer it to anyone and anywhere in seconds and with several cents as a transaction fee. Hence, this is a great alternative to any bank operations nominated in US Dollars.

What is MakerDAO

MakerDAO (Maker) is a decentralized organization aiming to stabilize the crypto economy. To reach this goal the Maker unlocks the power of decentralized finance (DeFi) for everyone by creating an inclusive platform for economic empowerment; enabling everyone with equal access to the global financial marketplace. Moreover, eligible members of the MakerDAO community govern, maintain and manage DAI token.
