Poland's Orlen provided $230 million to Venezuela for an oil deal, with most of the funds transferred using the USDt stablecoin. However, only about $29 million worth of oil was delivered, highlighting the risks associated with using stablecoins in international trade.

The large payment and lack of corresponding oil delivery raise concerns about transparency and security in crypto-based transactions for large-scale commodity deals.

According to Pluang, 46 out of 50 major cryptocurrencies rose on September 17, 2026, with notable movers including BAL, CAKE, and SUSHI.
