Tether, the stablecoin pegged with the US Dollar, saw a massive transfer today when 199.99 million USDT worth approximately 201 million were transferred from crypto exchange, Bitfinex to Huobi.

A similar transaction was reported earlier today that involved the transfer of 200 million USDT from Bitfinex to the Tether Treasury.

Tether has gained significant value since the start of 2021, the world’s largest stablecoin now has a market cap of $27.8 billion, a jump of nearly 7 billion since the start of this year. Tether’s market cap is now up more than 500% since January 2020. USDT is the third-largest crypto asset in the world behind Ethereum and Bitcoin.

Anonymous crypto transactions have increased in the last few months amid a jump in the prices of digital assets. Crypto holders and investors around the world use USDT to buy other Cryptocurrencies and the recent jump in altcoins played a major role in Tether’s significant market cap rise.
