Tether (USDT)

Tether (USDT) holds unshaken at $0.999, demonstrating its role as a safe harbor amid market chaos with a 0.0% weekly change, contrasting sharply with #3 BNB’s 4.6% slide. Its stable peg remained intact within a 0.05% range even as Bitcoin fell 6.4%, absorbing $2.3 billion in net inflows over the past week—a 30% increase from the weekly average. This liquidity surge, totaling $89 billion in market cap, makes USDT the most traded asset with a daily volume of $95 billion, outperforming #1 Bitcoin’s $18 billion by 5.3x. Traders fleeing volatility have pushed USDT’s share of exchange deposits to 78%, reinforcing its status as the crypto economy’s primary stablecoin anchor.
