Tether Expands Focus to Foreign Markets

Tether Prioritizes International Markets Amid U.S. Regulatory Changes

• Tether continues to focus on international markets despite U.S. regulatory changes.
• CEO Paolo Ardoino highlighted the potential for a U.S.-compliant stablecoin.
• The GENIUS Act is favored over MiCA for stablecoin regulation in the U.S.
• MiCA requires dollar-backed stablecoins to hold 60% reserves in European banks, seen as impractical by Ardoino.
• Over three billion people in emerging markets face banking challenges, which Tether aims to address with digital currencies like USDT.
• The GENIUS Act passed preliminary review in the U.S. Senate on May 20, 2025.

Tether remains focused on global expansion, particularly in regions with limited banking access, while exploring a new stablecoin under the GENIUS Act framework following its preliminary Senate review on May 20, 2025.
