If the newly minted tokens are added to the number of authorized USDT assets, Tron’s supply would surpass Ethereum’s USDT supply. In terms of circulating supply, Tron also has the lead with $73.6 billion USDT on the network, while Ethereum only has $71.8 billion. Source: PeckShieldAlertTether’s USDT mints replenish the company’s token inventoryTether CEO Paolo Ardoino previously said on X that some of the company’s blockchain-based USDT mints are used to replenish their USDT inventory on blockchain networks.
While Avalanche has over $1 billion in authorized USDT, the network only has a net circulation of $752 million in tokens. Meanwhile, The Open Network, Aptos, Near, Celo and Cosmos have smaller authorized and circulating USDT supplies. CoinGecko data shows that Tether's total circulation is at a record high of $150 million, a 9.4% increase compared to its supply at the start of 2025.
This ensures that the firm’s liquidity management is smooth. This means that authorized USDT supply on a network means that the stablecoin issuer anticipates future issuance demand of the stablecoin on a blockchain.
