<p>Tether launched Tether Gold (XAUT) stablecoin on the TON blockchain. Within the first two days, 35 million<a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2024/03/21/e-commerce-enthusiasm-peaks-usdc-usdt-investors-dive-into-pushd-pushd-presale/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> USDT </a>was issued on TON. The integration with Telegram allows users to send money seamlessly through direct messages without needing blockchain addresses or additional applications.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The platform fully supports on-ramps for most global fiat currencies at launch, and the plan is to introduce global off-ramps that will facilitate withdrawals directly to bank accounts or cards.&nbsp;</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-tron-network-holds-majority-of-circulating-supply-strong"><strong>Tron Network Holds Majority of Circulating Supply</strong></h3>
<p>Despite these developments on TON, the Tron network hosts most of Tether’s 109.8 billion circulating supply, which amounts to 57.8 billion. Ethereum follows with 51 billion in circulation, although this figure has decreased as Tether expands to other blockchains to mitigate high network fees associated with Ethereum.</p>
<p>At launch, USDT on TON will be supported by fully integrated on-ramps from most fiat currencies globally. The company added that integrated global off-ramps will soon allow users to withdraw supported fiat currencies directly to bank accounts or cards.</p>
<p>Other blockchains supporting Tether include Solana, which ranks third with 1.9 billion issued, and several others, such as Avalanche, Omni, Cosmos, Tezos, Near, EOS, and Celo.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Tether maintains a dominant position in the broader stablecoin market, with a 69% market share of the total $159.5 Billion stablecoin market capitalization, as per data from CoinGecko. Circle’s USD Coin holds the nearest competitor position with a 21% market share, amounting to 33.7 billion in circulation.</p>
