Tether’s CTO, Paolo Ardoino, tweeted that the newly minted USDT tokens have not yet entered circulation. He added that it is an authorized but not issued transaction. This means that Tether will use the newly minted tokens as inventory for future issuance and other swaps.That made Tether reach $15 billion in newly minted USDT tokens since the start of 2023. By this, the stablecoin has witnessed an increase of around 15% in its market capitalization.

However, Tether has not yet released its quarterly attestation for Q1 2023, but its continuing expansion in the stablecoin sector shows the market’s confidence.Moreover, Tether is one of the topics discussed in this week’s House of Financial Services subcommittee hearing on stablecoins in Washington, D.C. The discussion is about the lack of federal rules for stablecoin issuers in the United States.
