A historic record

On March 10, Tether’s trading volumes recorded a new historic maximum of $10 bln. The controversial dollar-pegged stablecoin, which many believe doesn’t have enough fiat reserves to back its token, saw this trend continuing throughout the whole month.   

March was also quite a success for Bitcoin – the number one cryptocurrency returned to its April numbers in terms of trading volumes with $11 bln. At the time, the BTC price was sitting at $9,750.
