Tron-based USDT tokens account for more than 12% of the total offer of the most popular stablecoin.
According to Tronscan , to date, 520 million Tether “stable coins” have been issued on the Tron blockchain.
Given the current supply volume of Tether ( 4.1 billion USDT ), the share of TRC20 tokens in it is 12.65%.
A significant increase in the share of USDT of the new standard occurred today, October 25th. Initially, the TRON Foundation wrote about the new 100 million TRC20 stablecoins:

Then a Whale Alert Twitter account discovered a transaction with $ 40 million TRC20-USDT:

In a commentary on a tweet, Bitfinex Technical Director Paolo Ardoino explained that the transaction is the result of the migration of tokens from the Ethereum standard ERC20 to TRC20.
