Tether's US-regulated stablecoin USAT launched in January 2026 and grew from $22 million in March to $140.8 million by April, marking a 540% increase in one month. Despite this rapid growth, USAT remains a small fraction of Tether's main offshore stablecoin USDT, which contracted by about $6 billion from May to July. USAT is issued by Anchorage Digital Bank under strict federal regulations, with Deloitte-audited reserves, contrasting with USDT's less rigorous attestations. USAT serves as a compliant option or hedge amid tightening US stablecoin regulations, with future growth and regulatory moves to be closely watched.
