Tether plans to launch a stablecoin, specifically designed for the US market in compliance with the GENIUS Act, called USAT<\/a> in December 2025. This was revealed by the company’s CEO, Paolo Ardoino, in an interview with CoinDesk<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The key platform for promoting the asset will be Rumble. In December 2024, Tether invested<\/a> $775 million in the Canadian video hosting and cloud storage system.<\/p>\n

In the United States, the service has about 51 million monthly active visitors, who could potentially become USAT users, Ardoino noted.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe are investing in two to three companies that will increase this number from 51 to 100 million,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Tether CEO did not disclose specific targets for potential investments. He indicated that investments in social networks and content platforms are being considered, as the company positions the stablecoin as a token for the creator economy.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cFor the US market, a more professional and digital approach to money is needed, capable of competing with PayPal and other similar systems,\u201d Ardoino emphasized.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

According to him, Tether’s advantage should be the existing user base of the firm’s products. For the company’s flagship coin \u2014 USDT<\/a> \u2014 this figure has already exceeded 500 million people<\/a> worldwide.<\/p>\n

Beyond USDT<\/h2>\n

At the time of writing, the market capitalization of the largest dollar stablecoin reached $183.1 billion, while the second-ranked USDC<\/a> from Circle stands at $76.3 billion. The two issuers dominate a segment worth over $300 billion<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the supply of Tether’s gold-backed XAUT has more than tripled since the beginning of the year to $2.2 billion.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe are seeing retail growth in Central and South America, as well as in Asia, where awareness of tokenized gold is beginning to rise,\u201d he said. \u201cDue to the excitement, market makers are also increasingly turning to the product, as they can sell it on secondary markets, obtaining a higher spread than on CME futures,\u201d Ardoino explained.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Back in May, when announcing the US market entry, he stated<\/a> that Tether would continue to focus on third-world countries, which form the main customer base for the company’s stablecoins.<\/p>\n

The plan to launch a regulated coin for the United States was presented<\/a> by the firm in September. The Tether USAT division will be led by Bo Hines<\/a>, a former executive director of the Cryptocurrency Advisory Board under President Donald Trump. The stablecoin will use the RWA<\/a> platform technology of the Hadron<\/a> company.<\/p>\n

According to Bloomberg<\/a>, Tether expects to achieve a record profit of $15 billion by the end of the year. At the Plan B conference in Lugano, Ardoino noted that the company’s business profitability stands at 99%.<\/p>\n

As reported by the agency, the company is in talks with investors to raise $20 billion<\/a>, which could elevate its valuation to $500 billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
