On the Tether website, you can see the amount of USDT on the basis of various blockchains:

So far, USDT stablecoins based on Omni prevail in circulation – 2.82 billion, while the supply of “stable coins” of the ERC-20 standard has already reached 1.45 billion. 107 million USDT were issued on the Tron blockchain, 251 million on EOS, and while only 61,000 stablecoins "live" in the Liquid Network .

Recall that last month Tether announced the release of USDT on the Algorand blockchain .
