  • Tether Launches USAT Stablecoin, Appoints Bo Hines as Head of U.S. Operations

    Tether is deepening its commitment to the U.S. market by appointing a CEO for U.S. operations, Bo Hines, and launching USAT, a stablecoin for U.S. institutions. USAT, operating under the GENIUS Act framework, will utilize Tether’s Hadron platform and involve Anchorage Digital as issuer and Cantor Fitzgerald as a reserve custodian. While USDT remains dominant globally, USAT aims to compete directly with competitors like USDC within the U.S. This strategic move seeks to address regulatory concerns and attract risk-averse entities, integrating digital assets into traditional finance.
