Tether Partners with Anchorage Digital to Launch U.S.-Regulated Stablecoin USAT
Tether has selected Anchorage Digital, the only federally chartered digital asset bank in the U.S., to issue its new stablecoin, USAT. The MOVE aligns with the GENIUS Act, which provides regulatory clarity for stablecoin innovation in the U.S. market.
The collaboration signals Tether's ambition to establish leadership in the U.S. stablecoin landscape. USAT, expected to launch by year-end, will operate under federal oversight, setting a new standard for compliant digital dollar alternatives.
Nathan McCauley, CEO of Anchorage Digital, emphasized the significance of bringing Tether's ecosystem under U.S. regulation. The partnership arrives as global stablecoin adoption accelerates, with regulatory frameworks now enabling established players to expand their reach.
