Tether, also known on exchanges as USDT, is the biggest cryptocurrency that you have probably never heard of if
you are just getting started with crypto. However, it’s one of the most important currencies that you should
know about. Tether belongs to a type of cryptocurrencies that are known as ‘stablecoins’. As the name suggests,
these currencies have a stable value over time and are also very useful when it comes to keeping the value of
other cryptocurrencies stable. Tether doesn’t have its own native blockchain, it was first launched on the
Bitcoin protocol via the Omni Layer and since then has migrated to several other blockchains. In fact, the
majority of its supply currently exists on Ethereum. As of today, Tether has become an extremely important
aspect of cryptocurrency.
