Tether Plans U.S. Stablecoin Launch Pending Regulatory Clarity

Tether, the issuer of the world’s largest stablecoin USDT, is preparing to introduce a new dollar-pegged product in the United States. The launch window targets late 2025 or early 2026, contingent on Congressional progress regarding stablecoin legislation.

"Regulatory clarity will be the determining factor," said CEO Paolo Ardoino, emphasizing the company’s commitment to compliance. The announcement comes as USDT solidifies its position as one of the most widely adopted financial products globally, with particular dominance in emerging markets.

Market observers note the strategic timing of Tether’s move, as U.S. policymakers increasingly focus on establishing clear frameworks for stablecoins. The company’s existing USDT product currently maintains a market capitalization exceeding $110 billion despite operating primarily outside U.S. regulatory oversight.
