The circulating supply of Open USD (OUSD) has grown to $722.46 million, according to data from DeFiLlama. This figure represents an increase from the $666 million reported in a recent snapshot by Crystal, which highlighted the concentration of tokens in a small number of wallets.

Crystal's analysis, dated October 5, revealed that eight Tempo wallets held $396 million in OUSD, accounting for a substantial portion of the token's supply. The activity within customer custody accounts remains unclear, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the distribution of tokens.

While CryptoSlate reported on the concentration of tokens in these wallets, the exact figures differ slightly from the current data provided by DeFiLlama. This discrepancy may be due to fluctuations in the token's circulating supply and the movement of funds between wallets.

The broader crypto market remains relatively flat, with a total market cap of $2.98 trillion. Bitcoin has seen a slight 24-hour decline of 0.67%, while the Fear & Greed Index stands at 71, indicating a 'Greed' sentiment. Open USD itself is currently priced at $1.001, with a minor 0.09% increase over the past 24 hours.

The concentration of OUSD tokens in a small number of wallets could raise concerns about decentralization and potential market manipulation. However, the stablecoin's market cap has remained stable, suggesting that investor confidence remains intact for now.

What this means in naira

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 OUSD ≈ ₦1,366.1 (about $1.00), up 0.0% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 2.9% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
