Buy Tether USD (USDT)

The main factor that makes Tether USD unique is that its value is guaranteed to be pegged to the US dollar. Tether claims that it is able to do this by ensuring that USDT is fully backed by cash and cash equivalents. This means that whenever Tether issues USDT tokens, the same amount of US dollars are allocated to its reserves. Cryptocurrency markets and assets can often be very volatile and too unreliable to be exchanged and stored as value. USDT, being a stablecoin, mitigates this risk and is protected from these fluctuations. Therefore, a lot of businesses and establishments accept transactions made in USDT.

Tether USD maintains a 1:1 USD peg so that when people buy USDT they are essentially buying a digital equivalent of the US Dollar. Tether claims that every USDT token in circulation is fully backed by real fiat currency (USD) in its reserves. Some sceptics continue to question USDT’s reliability as a stablecoin, however, Tether continues to be transparent with how it has maintained a 1:1 ratio over all these years. You can view Tether’s current balances on its transparency page.
