Tether 鑄造 1B USDT，發行總量達 $33B

據報道，Tether 已鑄造了 10 億枚 USDT，使總發行量達到 330 億美元，最近的鑄造發生在以太坊網路上。

Stablecoin issuer Tether has minted 1 billion USDT, bringing the total issuance to $33 billion, according to data from the company's treasury wallet. The latest mint occurred on the Ethereum network.

根據該公司金庫錢包的數據，穩定幣發行商 Tether 已鑄造 10 億枚 USDT，使發行總量達到 330 億美元。最新的鑄幣發生在以太坊網路上。

The development was met with two possible expressions — a welcome note and a dubious one.

這項進展有兩種可能的表達——一種歡迎的說法和一種可疑的說法。

Paolo Ardoino, Chief Executive Officer of Tether, said the mint is only meant to replenish inventory, adding that those tokens were only authorized and not yet issued.

Tether 執行長 Paolo Ardoino 表示，該鑄幣廠只是為了補充庫存，並補充說這些代幣只是經過授權，尚未發行。

This indicates that the team is preparing for a surge in demand. As a result, the stock was prepared in advance. The idea is to effectively manage liquidity and issuance requests that may happen in the future. The market has not yet received the released USDTs. Most likely, they will be employed solely to mitigate deficiencies.

這表明該團隊正在為需求激增做好準備。因此，庫存是提前準備好的。其想法是有效管理未來可能發生的流動性和發行請求。市場尚未收到已釋放的USDT。最有可能的是，他們的使用只是為了緩解缺陷。

Industry observers are saying that this constitutes malpractice on their behalf in terms of decision-making. They have linked the token issuance, or mining, to the price movements of Bitcoin tokens. This link is only speculative, with no concrete evidence presented at the press time. Investor sentiments and market conditions, among other factors, influence Bitcoin price movements.

業內觀察人士表示，這構成了他們決策上的瀆職。他們將代幣發行或挖礦與比特幣代幣的價格變動連結起來。這種關聯只是推測，截至發稿時尚未提供具體證據。投資者情緒和市場狀況等因素影響比特幣價格走勢。

Tether has approximately $36 million USDT tokens that were authorized but not yet issued.

Tether 擁有約 3600 萬美元的 USDT 代幣，這些代幣已獲得授權但尚未發行。

Ali Martinez, one of the notable crypto analysts, believes a strong correlation exists between the issuance of USDT and the Bitcoin price. Martinez said that the incident is helping the ecosystem to fuel fresh liquidity and help rebound from the recent decline.

著名加密貨幣分析師之一 Ali Martinez 認為 USDT 的發行與比特幣價格之間有強烈的相關性。馬丁內斯表示，這起事件正在幫助生態系統注入新的流動性，並幫助從近期的下跌中反彈。

Meanwhile, Arkham Intelligence has conveyed its admiration, expressing astonishment at achieving this feat with no gas fees.

與此同時，阿卡姆情報公司表達了欽佩之情，並對在不收取任何汽油費的情況下實現這一壯舉表示驚訝。

The idea of minting USDT is also aimed at supporting Aptos, in response to the remarkable growth of its ecosystem. In July, there were 170,000 daily active users, up from 96,000 in January of this year.

鑄造 USDT 的想法也是為了支持 Aptos，以應對其生態系統的顯著增長。 7 月份，每日活躍用戶數為 17 萬，高於今年 1 月份的 96,000。

At the same time, Tether is preparing to compete with RLUSD, a stablecoin developed by Ripple that is expected to enter the market later this year. It is likely that the market will heavily speculate on the movements of USDT on the crypto chart once Ripple launches RLUSD, as the dominance of USDT has been a topic of inquiry ever since.

與此同時，Tether 正準備與 Ripple 開發的穩定幣 RLUSD 競爭，預計今年稍後進入市場。一旦 Ripple 推出 RLUSD，市場很可能會大量猜測 USDT 在加密貨幣圖表上的走勢，因為 USDT 的主導地位一直是人們質疑的話題。

Currently, the Tether Treasury Wallet has minted 19 billion on the Tron network and 14 billion on the Ethereum network. This brings the total to 33 billion, in anticipation of future demand. Minted tokens are authorized; however, they have not yet been issued. They will only be leveraged in the future to meet the increasing demand while maintaining a balance between supply, demand and liquidity. A strike competition with Ripple’s stablecoin is set to take center stage before the end of the year. That will put Tether’s current adopted strategy to the test.

目前，Tether Treasury Wallet 在 Tron 網路上鑄造了 190 億枚，在以太坊網路上鑄造了 140 億枚。考慮到未來的需求，總數達到 330 億人。鑄造的代幣已獲得授權；然而，它們尚未發行。未來只會利用槓桿來滿足不斷增長的需求，同時保持供需和流動性之間的平衡。與 Ripple 穩定幣的罷工競爭將在今年年底前成為焦點。這將使 Tether 目前採用的策略受到考驗。

Until then, it remains to be seen if Bitcoin tokens will continue to be affected by TRON minted on the network. Industry experts believe it will impact the flagship cryptocurrency in one way or another.

在那之前，比特幣代幣是否會繼續受到網路上鑄造的 TRON 的影響還有待觀察。產業專家認為，這將以某種方式影響旗艦加密貨幣。
