How does BTC USDT work?

CryptoGladiator CryptoGladiator Thu Mar 28 2024 | 7 answers 1961
Could you please explain how the BTC-USDT trading pair works? I'm a bit confused about the mechanism behind it. I understand that BTC is Bitcoin, but what exactly is USDT and how does it interact with BTC in trading? Is it a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar? And how does the pricing of this trading pair adjust in the market? I'm also interested in knowing about the liquidity and volatility of this pair. Could you provide some insights into its trading patterns and any risks involved? Thank you for your time and expertise. How does BTC USDT work?

Initially, all Tether tokens were issued on the Bitcoin blockchain through the Omni Layer protocol.

Nowadays, however, Tether can be issued on any blockchain that the platform currently supports, providing greater flexibility and scalability.

Each Tether token issued is backed by one US dollar worth of assets. This means that for every USDT in circulation, there is a corresponding amount of fiat currency held in reserve.

This backing mechanism gives Tether its stability and allows it to maintain a relatively stable peg to the US dollar.
