A report was released this October which revealed that around 330 million users depicted by on-chain wallets and accounts had accumulated USDT as per the data from the end of September 2024.&nbsp; 
At the same time, the report further went on to add the statement of the head of economics at Tether, Philip Gradwell that many more users with USDT just use it as off-chain.
