I'm wondering why the price of Tether always remains at $1 dollar. Is there a specific reason or mechanism behind this stability?

The supply of Tether in the market plays a significant role in determining its price. When there is an abundance of Tether available, its price may drop slightly below 1 USD due to reduced scarcity.

Conversely, if the supply of Tether is low, its price may rise slightly above 1 USD as investors compete for the limited amount of tokens available.

Demand for Tether also influences its price. High demand for Tether, often driven by increased trading activity in cryptocurrency markets, can push its price upwards towards or above 1 USD.

Tether (USDT) does not always equate to 1 USD due to several factors. One crucial point to consider is that Tether is not a direct representation of 1 USD despite being partially backed by dollar reserves.

Instead, Tether operates as a derivative of the US dollar. This means its value can deviate slightly from the US dollar based on economic principles that govern supply and demand.
