FAQ: USDT Minting and Burning

1. What does "minting" USDT mean?

Minting refers to the creation of new USDT tokens by Tether Limited, typically to meet market demand. These tokens are then released into circulation via authorized exchanges or partners.

2. Why are some USDT transactions burned?

Burning (destroying) USDT reduces the total supply, often to maintain price stability or remove tokens from circulation when demand decreases.

3. How can I verify USDT transactions?

๐Ÿ‘‰ Track USDT minting/burning in real-time using blockchain explorers like OKLink. Always cross-check transaction hashes and block heights for authenticity.

4. Which blockchain is cheapest for USDT transfers?

TRON (TRC-20) typically offers lower fees compared to Ethereum (ERC-20), making it preferred for large transfers.

5. Are these transactions audited?

Tether publishes periodic reserves attestations, but individual transactions are publicly verifiable on-chain for transparency.
