Tether, the leading stablecoin provider, announced a significant expansion of its mission and operations on Thursday. The company is moving beyond its well-known USDT stablecoin to introduce a new framework that aims to build inclusive infrastructure solutions and foster resilient, future-ready financial systems.
The new framework includes four core divisions: Data, Finance, Power, and Edu. Tether Data, the technology division, specializes in the development and strategic investment of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and peer-to-peer platforms. The division has already made notable ventures, including Holepunch, which catalyzed ground-breaking P2P technologies like Keet and Pear Runtime. Tether Data is pushing the boundaries of possibility in the digital age, focusing on strategic investments in AI trailblazers like the Northern Data Group.
In addition, Tether Finance serves as the cornerstone for Tether’s traditional stablecoin products and financial systems, championing technology that democratizes the global financial system. Tether Finance is poised to spearhead the use of blockchain technology to build an unstoppable financial infrastructure, including the upcoming digital asset tokenization platform, catalyzing mainstream adoption of digital assets.
Tether Power, the sustainable Bitcoin mining and energy division, is venturing into sustainable Bitcoin mining operations, aligning with responsible practices to secure the integrity of the world’s most robust monetary network. This division aims to prioritize sustainable growth while fostering financial freedom and prosperity.
Furthermore, Tether Edu, the digital education and advancement transformation division, is committed to expanding global access to digital skills education. Through a multifaceted approach, Tether Edu fosters understanding, proficiency, and awareness of digital and innovative technologies. By taking the lead in educational efforts, Tether Edu is actively promoting the widespread adoption of blockchain and peer-to-peer technologies on both a local and global scale.
This expansion signifies Tether’s commitment to building a more inclusive and sustainable financial ecosystem, going beyond its traditional stablecoin offerings to support the invention and implementation of cutting-edge technology. Its vision to empower individuals, communities, cities, and nations to become self-sustainable, independent, and free fosters a future where financial systems are resilient, adaptive, and accessible to all.
