Tether to issue separate stablecoin for U.S. despite ‘getting comfortable' with the Genius Act, CEO says

  • Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino told Bloomberg on Friday that the company is “open to” creating a separate domestic stablecoin to meet the needs of the U.S. market. The news comes amid the U.S. trying to push through a stablecoin legislation—the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins Act (GENIUS Act).
