Tether Treasury Mints $1B USDT On Ethereum Ahead Of Anticipated FED Rate Cut

Approximately three hours ago, the Tether Treasury minted 1 billion USDT on the Ethereum network.

This minting activity comes just before the highly anticipated Federal Reserve interest rate cut, scheduled for September 17-18.

Over the past year, the Tether Treasury has issued a staggering 35 billion USDT, playing a key role in Bitcoin’s price surge from $26.6K to over $73K in March.

Historically, large USDT mintings have been linked to Bitcoin price increases or periods of price stabilization.

Massie Capital Inflows In The Stablecoin 

Between September 9 and 14, 2024, the stablecoin market saw significant capital inflows, which may once again influence Bitcoin’s price. Here’s a breakdown of the latest stablecoin market capitalization growth:

– USDT Market Capitalization Growth: Net increase of $410 million.
– USDC Market Capitalization Growth: Net increase of $743 million.
– Total Stablecoin Capitalization (USDT + USDC): Combined net increase of $1.153 billion.

Since September 9, the combined market cap growth of USDT and USDC reflects a steady inflow of capital into the crypto space. While these inflows are smaller compared to the previous week’s more robust figures, they still suggest fresh capital entering the market, which could support Bitcoin price movements in the coming days.

With the upcoming FED rate decision, many market observers will be watching closely to see if this capital injection will once again lead to Bitcoin price appreciation, in line with past trends following large USDT mintings.
