Bitcoin-Tether Pair Is Most Liquid on Binance Even as TUSD Pair Sees Higher Volumes
Trading volumes of bitcoin (BTC) paired with ArchBlock's dollar-pegged stablecoin TrueUSD (TUSD) have surged on Binance after the exchange introduced zero trading fees in the pair on March 23. However, the trade of BTC denominated in tether (USDT), the largest dollar-pegged stablecoin by market value, remains more liquid. Market depth data on Binance shows that BTC-USDT is still king from a liquidity standpoint, with market makers evidently more comfortable with exposure to Tether over TUSD. Nonetheless, TUSD's market depth has improved sharply from practically zero to $10 million in a month, surpassing BUSD to become the second-most liquid pair on Binance.
USDT Thrives In Market Cap Growth, But Theft Risks Grow With Scams On The Rise
USDT, the largest stablecoin in the crypto market, is approaching its all-time high market capitalization of $82 billion. However, the stablecoin is not immune to external threats, such as theft, which could disrupt the market and impact its value. Tether maintains a well-diversified treasury to support the value of its stablecoin, with cash and cash equivalents comprising 82.13% of its treasury and the remainder distributed among corporate bonds, secured loans, and other digital assets like ETH and BTC. Despite concerns over its treasury diversification and market volatility, USDT remains an attractive option for retail investors seeking a stable and secure investment opportunity. However, recent data reveals that the amount of USDT stolen by scammers has significantly increased in recent months, posing a risk to investors and the reputation of stablecoins like USDT. Despite this, USDT's strong market performance and diversified treasury indicate that it is well-positioned to maintain its position as a leading digital currency in the crypto market.

Tether Blacklists Validator Address That Drained MEV Bots for $25M
Tether has blacklisted an address that exploited a bug in Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) bots and drained $25 million last week. The address outsmarted the MEV bots trying to execute a sandwich trade by back-running the transaction. The USDT address held about $3 million in USDT and $21 million in various other ERC-20 tokens at the time of blacklisting. The blacklisting has attracted pushback from the community for its censorship approach. MEV bots make money by taking advantage of information about transactions that are about to be executed, which is often considered a form of invisible tax. The aim of the MEV blocker is to minimize the amount of value extracted from traders.
