FAQ
Is USDT a safe token?
As of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, USDT scores 40/100 (grade D) on HostDeFi's on-chain read — based on a contract that can mint new supply, cannot freeze or blacklist transfers, liquidity of $14.30K and 134,514 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.
Can you sell USDT, or is it a honeypot?
The 2026-10-09 contract read found no sell-blocking controls on USDT — no honeypot flag, no transfer pause, no blacklist — and every honeypot GoPlus positively flags is dropped from this index outright. That clears the contract side; how cleanly an exit fills still depends on your size against the $14.30K of measured depth.
Who holds most of USDT?
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 134,514; 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.
Can USDT's supply be inflated?
Yes — the contract can still mint new supply as of the 2026-10-09 snapshot, so the deployer or a minter role can dilute holders. Treat the circulating figure as a floor, not a cap.
What is the USDT contract address?
The USDT contract address on mantle is 0x201eba5cc46d216ce6dc03f6a759e8e766e956ae. Always verify a token by its contract address, not its name or ticker — scam clones copy tickers, but the address is unique.
Where can you buy USDT safely?
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 (0x201eba5cc46d216ce6dc03f6a759e8e766e956ae) exactly before trading — copying the ticker is how clone scams catch buyers, and the address is the one field they can't fake.

HostDeFi's generated read on USDT — written from the stored snapshot, figures re-rendered at each refresh.
USDT has one open item that shapes the whole read, so let's start there. As of 2026-10-09, USDT's contract still holds a mint function, which means the team can still create new supply. It's the main reason the read sits at 40/100 (grade D) today — and the clearest path to a higher grade is simply removing it.
On liquidity and holders, USDT shows $14.30K of on-chain liquidity, 134,514 wallets holding and an established record at 1,170 days as of 2026-10-09. Against a market cap near $2.46M, that $14.30K of liquidity is the real constraint here: a pool this shallow relative to the cap makes slippage, not the contract, the thing to plan around. With 134,514 holders, ownership is spread wide — the opposite of the handful-of-wallets setup that lets one seller steer the price. The creator's own position is small — <0.01% of supply as of 2026-10-09, comfortably under the 5% line the scanners flag — which is what you want to see.
Here's what would move USDT's grade from here: it improves once that permission is handed back and depth builds on today's $14.30K; and the downside would be a shrinking pool or the 134,514 holders clustering into fewer wallets. Everything above is a 2026-10-09 snapshot, and the scan at the top refreshes it in seconds whenever you need it.
