Tether USD (USDT)

As of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, USDT scores 80/100 (grade B) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on a contract that has unconfirmed mint controls, has unconfirmed freeze and blacklist controls, liquidity of $26.60M and 4,379,108 holders, with the creator wallet holding <0.01% of supply. That grades contract and market structure, not price direction — a clean read is not a guarantee, so re-scan before trading, since on-chain state can change.

Our Arbitrum read covers market structure, not sell-side contract behaviour like honeypots or transfer taxes, as of 2026-10-09. Before assuming you can exit freely, run the live scan above — it reads the contract directly.

The wallet that created USDT holds <0.01% of the supply as of 2026-10-09 — a small stake, under the 5% the scanners flag. That sits alongside a holder base of 4,379,108; a broad base lowers the odds that any one seller can steer the price, but the creator's share is the number to watch first.

The USDT contract address on Arbitrum is 0xfd086bc7cd5c481dcc9c85ebe478a1c0b69fcbb9. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.

Run the live on-chain scan at the top of this page first; if USDT clears, you can swap it here directly. Whatever venue you use, match the contract address (0xfd086bc7cd5c481dcc9c85ebe478a1c0b69fcbb9) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.
