See that number? 1 billion USDT, just minted on-chain.

This is no small matter. Every time Tether mints a large amount of stablecoins, it's either because an institution is hungry—someone is getting ready to buy in—or an exchange is stocking up—worried about not having enough liquidity for upcoming volatility. Which do you think is more likely? I think it's a bit of both. The market has been quiet for a while, and now suddenly this move feels like someone is paving the way for some action.

For ordinary investors, don’t get too excited just yet.

First, money arriving doesn’t mean the market will take off immediately; there could be a lag of several days or even weeks. Second, ample liquidity at least means one thing: the market’s ability to withstand pressure has increased, and the probability of extreme drops is diluted. Third, mainstream tokens and those with active ecosystems are usually where new funds flow first—keep a close eye on them, and don’t waste time chasing low-quality tokens.

My personal judgment? This looks more like a positive mid- to long-term signal. In the short term, the market will likely remain choppy, with volatility, shakeouts, and back-and-forth, but you can feel more comfortable holding your core positions. Don’t let this kind of news tempt you into chasing pumps or panic selling—hold your spot positions, filter out the noise, and wait for the tide to rise.

A pool full of water always offers more opportunities than a dry pit. Be patient—the winds might be about to change.
