Nansen Researcher Discovers Binance Stacking Circle’s Stablecoin
According to Nansen’s data journalist Martin Lee, the amount of usd coin (USDC) held on Binance has been steadily climbing this week. “Interesting to see the amount of USDC on Binance increase so much since the BUSD news,” Lee tweeté mardi. Lee further detailed that Binance saw a $1.5 billion increase in USDC in the last seven days.
He also noted that he would have expected the supply of tether (USDT) to increase on Binance more than USDC, “given that you can’t trade using USDC” on Binance. On Sept. 5, 2022, Binance dropped pièce de monnaie (USDC) trading pairs and auto-converted customer balances to BUSD. Two weeks later, Wazirx followed Binance’s move, delisting usd coin (USDC) and a couple of other stablecoins to auto-convert balances to BUSD.
En février. 19, Actualités Bitcoin-Tidings.com signalé that close to 3 billion BUSD had been removed from the market, and today, that number is up to 3.55 milliard since Paxos révélé it would no longer mint BUSD. The Paxos-managed stablecoin is still the third-largest stablecoin by market capitalization until it drops below DAI’s market valuation of $5 milliard. BUSD, which was once a prominent top-ten crypto asset by market capitalization, is getting awfully close to being knocked out of the top ten standings.
The Nansen researcher also noted that there’s $1.8 billion USDC in Binance’s main wallet today, and it’s the highest it has been in 90 jours. Au moment de la rédaction, 2:00 après-midi. (HE) on Feb. 21, 2023, il y a $1.821 billion USDC held in Binance’s wallet. It’s worth noting that Nansen’s portfolio viewer only looks at ERC20-based balances, and Binance has just over 100 million Tether (USDT) in the same wallet. The Binance wallet also holds 79.24 million trueusd (TUSD) et 5.34 million DAI.
