150,000 million USDT anticipate greater upload for bitcoin
The number of tether USD (USDT) units, the largest capitalization stablecoin, reached a new historical maximum of 150,000 million, which predicts an upward signal for Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrencies.
In this way, its market capitalization (metric that measures the price of the asset for the amount of currency coins) also reached a new historical maximum of 150,000 million dollars (USD), since the stablecoin follows the same price as the dollar.
This milestone demonstrates an increase in the liquidity available in the cryptocurrency marketwhich allows you to follow your recent price rebound.
The new USDT capitalization record occurs in a context where the total cryptocurrency market value has been growing in a sustained way during the last month. This exceeded the USD 3.2 billion (Trillionsin English), approaching the historical maximum of USD 3.7 billion that played at the end of last year.
Despite the capitalization of cryptocurrencies, the proportion that Tether Usd represents within the total – known as their dominance – has remained stable around 5%, as seen below.
This is important because it shows a healthy balance in the market: it means that There is no excess of USDT supply that reflects rejection of volatility, nor does it lower liquidity that prevents the price increase from following.
If USDT dominance had increased a lot, it could indicate that investors are selling volatile cryptocurrencies to take refuge in a stable currency, which is usually a sign of fear or risk aversion.
On the contrary, if USDT dominance had fallen dramatically, it could be interpreted as a sign of lack of liquidity or shortage of “fresh money” available to continue promoting price increases.
On the other hand, the new historical capitalization of USDT (which can be seen below), while its dominance remains stable and the market in general goes up, suggests that Liquidity is accompanying Bitcoin price increase and cryptocurrencieswhich supports the possibility of continuing the rebound.
This context is given, as cryptootics reported, while this week Bitcoin reached the USD 105,000, its maximum price in two months, leaving only 10% of its historical record of USD 109,000 registered in January. Therefore, the context of greater liquidity feeds the expectations that its price reaches new heights.
USDT, which is the cryptoactive with more capitalization after Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH), currently dominates more than 60% of the Stablcoins market, thus being the largest asset of this niche.
The stablecoins allow cryptocurrency traderswithout the need to get out of the market. This is key in an environment where prices can fluctuate quickly.
In general, traders sell their cryptocurrencies by Stablecoins such as USDT when they expect a price drop or simply to protect their profits at times of high volatility. Subsequently, when they detect a new entry opportunity, they repurchase cryptoactive, facilitating high capital rotation in the markets.
That is why we follow the USDT movements closely as the main indicator of the stablecoins, in the midst of market changes, They are key to identifying the possible prices of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
The greatest capitalization of USDT is also a better financial situation for the Tether company, since it means that it accumulates more money to generate returns. Your business model works to invest the dollars (acquired from USDT buyers) in different financial instruments in search of massifying their reservations.
According to what the company points out on its website, maintains 81.49% of USDT reservations in US Treasury Bonds in the short term and other instruments tied to the dollar5.91% in guarantee loans, 5.13% in Bitcoin, 4.46% in gold and other precious metals, 2.99% in other investments that are not specified, and 0.01% in corporate bonds, as seen below.
Tether reported more than USD 1 billion in operational profits in the first quarter of 2025, continuing with a growth trajectory that began during the second half of 2022.
According to the economic analyst Gianluca Grossi, the high yields of the interest rates in the United States facilitated the result of profits that Tether is having, due to his strong exposure to the bonds. In addition, he clarifies that this is reinforced by the low costs that the company maintains, as little personal.
While it stands out that Tether’s profits could be more limited by interest rate cutsHe believes that his low corporate costs facilitate that the company’s finances continue solid, while the adoption of USDT continues to grow.
In addition, he points out his position in the market. “Tether does not seem to suffer hard competition and is positioned as a leader within a market of the Stablcoins, which also thanks to the efforts of the current United States government, is expected to grow greatly,” he said.
The US president, Donald Trump, has been implementing policies since his term began almost four months ago in favor of the adoption of cryptocurrencies, such as forming a national strategic reserve with these assets. This as part of his plans to turn the United States into the “capital” behind this ecosystem.
It should also be noted that Tether is a constant demanding United States Treasury Bondsso its growth is beneficial to maintain the value of the dollar. Therefore, it is understandable that the government does not want to put brakes in the development of the cryptocurrency industry, but rather to promote it.
From Tether, they said to the new historical capitalization of USDT that “they are just starting” and expect it to continue growing. Thanking those who have the stablecoin, they pointed out that today more than 400 million people trust the currency, which “drives the digital economy.”
“Tether, who was born in 2014, not only gave rise to USDT, but also an entire Stablecoins industry,” summarized from the company, due to the magnitude of the USDT domain in this niche market.
In this sense, the new historical maximum of USDT capitalization not only represents a sign of greater liquidity for cryptocurrencies, but also a good symptom for the stability of Tether and the US dollar.
