Will Tether Orionx Investment Fix Latin America Crisis or Fail?
Tether, the issuer of the dominant stablecoin USDT, has made a strategic move into Latin America with its June 3, 2025 investment in Orionx, a Chilean crypto exchange and financial services platform. The deal signals growing institutional interest in bridging digital assets with emerging market economies.
While no specific coins or exchanges were directly tied to the announcement, the partnership could indirectly bolster liquidity for major cryptocurrencies across regional trading venues. Stablecoins like USDT often serve as on-ramps for volatile markets, potentially increasing accessibility to assets from Bitcoin to emerging altcoins.
