USDT's Unprecedented Surge On TON Blockchain: $1.5 Billion Issued In 10 Months

(MENAFN- The Arabian Post)

The Open Network has witnessed a remarkable expansion in its ecosystem, primarily driven by the rapid adoption of Tether's USDT stablecoin. Since its integration in April 2024, the circulating supply of USDT on the TON blockchain has soared to approximately $1.5 billion within a span of ten months, marking the fastest growth of any stablecoin on a blockchain to date.

This swift adoption underscores the synergistic partnership between TON and Tether, aiming to enhance peer-to-peer payment solutions, especially within Telegram's extensive user base. The seamless integration of USDT has not only bolstered transaction volumes but also significantly increased user engagement within the TON ecosystem.

In response to this burgeoning demand, Tether has introduced the Legacy Mesh system, a bridge-free multichain liquidity solution. Launched on February 11, 2025, the Legacy Mesh connects USDT deployments across multiple blockchain networks, including TRON, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Ink, Berachain, and TON. This initiative aims to unify the $138 billion USDT market, facilitating seamless liquidity movement and enhancing the overall efficiency of stablecoin transactions.

The decentralized finance landscape on TON has also experienced substantial growth. Protocols such as STON and DeDust have been instrumental in this expansion, with daily average trading volumes on TON's decentralized exchanges escalating from just over $2 million to $21.4 million by December 2024. USDT plays a pivotal role in this ecosystem, accounting for over 25% of decentralized exchange volumes, thereby providing users with a stable medium of exchange and a reliable store of value.

Further enriching the TON ecosystem, Factorial Finance, a TON-based lending protocol, announced the launch of USDT borrowing services against Toncoin on February 19, 2025. This development offers users enhanced financial flexibility, allowing them to leverage their Toncoin holdings to access USDT liquidity. Since its inception, Factorial Finance has attracted over $11 million in total value locked, reflecting the growing confidence of users in TON's DeFi offerings.

The rapid growth trajectory of USDT on TON exemplifies the increasing demand for stable and efficient digital payment solutions, particularly within platforms boasting large user bases like Telegram.
