Refresh

This series has no endpoint reachable from the page, so the figure shows the value as of the last build. It is not labelled live and the timestamp is the build timestamp. Cadence: quarterly.

Treated as stale after 150 days without a new observation. Past that point the figure keeps the last verified number and carries a badge; it does not hide it and does not substitute an estimate.

Scope

It is a consolidated figure across the issuing companies, so it includes Tether's euro, peso and gold-referenced tokens as well as USDT; it therefore differs from third-party market-capitalisation estimates of USDT alone, which DefiLlama put at $184.02bn on 25 July 2026. It excludes Tether's equity and any excess reserve buffer, which are reported separately.
