Tether Doubles Down on LatAm Expansion with Strategic Orionx Investment
Tether—the stablecoin giant that somehow always has cash to burn—just placed another bet on crypto’s global adoption. This time? A Chilean exchange pushing dollar-pegged assets into Latin America’s volatile economies.
Why Orionx matters: Santiago’s homegrown platform has been quietly onboarding retail traders and institutional players alike, offering a rare regulatory-compliant gateway in a region where banks still treat crypto like contraband.
The unspoken play: While Wall Street hedgies argue about ETF flows, Tether’s printing press keeps funding real-world crypto infrastructure—proving once again that in finance, the most profitable moves often happen far from Bloomberg terminals.
