What is USDT?

Tether (USDT) was launched in 2014 as a stablecoin aimed at providing a stable digital asset that mitigates the volatility typically associated with cryptocurrencies. While most cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, experience significant price fluctuations, Tether has been designed to maintain a constant value, closely following the value of the US dollar (USD). That is why 1 USDT is worth $1. To ensure that, the company behind Tether, Tether Ltd., holds dollar reserves equal to the total supply of USDT in circulation. This backing by actual fiat currency allows Tether to maintain its peg to the USD, providing users with a stable digital asset that can be used for various purposes in the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Tether's main function as a stablecoin is to provide a reliable store of value, especially during times when the cryptocurrency market experiences significant fluctuations. This stability offers an option for those looking to minimize their exposure to unpredictable price movements while still participating in the digital asset ecosystem. Tether's ability to enable efficient global transactions is another important function it possesses. By providing a US dollar-equivalent digital asset that can be easily transferred across borders, USDT facilitates seamless and cost-effective cross-border transactions, demonstrating the transformative potential of stablecoins and blockchain technology in the financial sector. As a stablecoin, USDT allows for seamless and efficient trading of diverse cryptocurrencies, offering a stable reference point against which they can be valued. USDT's extensive use as a trading pair on numerous cryptocurrency exchanges has led to its increased adoption in the digital asset market. Its popularity has driven trading volume, resulting in USDT becoming one of the most widely used stablecoins, which in turn ensures high liquidity in the market.

How can I earn up to 0.5% in crypto cashback on USDT purchases?

To earn crypto cashback, ensure that at least 1% of your portfolio is in NEXO Tokens. Your cashback amount depends on your Loyalty Tier—the higher your tier, the more cashback you’ll receive.
If you want to get the maximum crypto cashback of 0.5%, join the Premium Loyalty Tier by holding at least 10% of your Portfolio Balance in NEXO.

Example

Let’s say you stay within Nexo’s Premium Loyalty tier and you buy $5,000 worth of USDT via the Nexo Exchange. That means you’ll get $25 worth of USDT in crypto cashback:

$5,000*0.05% = $25 in USDT

To find out the exact crypto cashback rates for each tier, visit our Help Center.

Note: The total crypto cashback paid are limited to up to $100,000 in exchange volume per month. That means you’ll be earning crypto cashback until your total monthly amount of swaps reaches $100,000. That limit resets back to $0 on the 1st day of each month.
