# Why stablecoins: USDT

Why USDT is the foundation of the MoonExe platform.

USDT is more than a cryptocurrency. It is new infrastructure that connects global capital, cross-border payments and digital finance.

## Continuous market expansion

* The global stablecoin market cap has passed **USD 250 billion**.
* USDT has long been the world's largest stablecoin by market cap.
* Hundreds of millions of on-chain transfers serve users worldwide.

## Global payment trends

* Trading runs 24/7 and settles instantly worldwide.
* Cross-border payments are far more efficient than traditional banking.

## Trusted and reliable

* USDT is backed by US dollar reserves, mainly highly liquid assets such as U.S. Treasury Bills, cash and cash equivalents.
* The U.S. **GENIUS Act** sets standards for stablecoins and creates a federal regulatory framework for USD stablecoins.

## The world's most widely used USD stablecoin

USDT is used by many global exchanges, payment platforms, OTC markets and businesses.

## The liquidity revolution: a $1T frontier by 2030

|                   | Daily stablecoin volume |
| ----------------- | ----------------------- |
| Today             | **$100B+**              |
| Projected by 2030 | **$1T+**                |

As volume grows tenfold, what matters most is no longer simple access. It is the deep liquidity that makes instant, low-cost global exchange possible.

> "Bloomberg Intelligence projects the stablecoin market will reach $1.2T by 2030."

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://hub.moonexe.com/how-it-works/why-stablecoins-usdt.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
