Tether Doubles Down on Africa—Pours Fresh Capital into Shiga Digital
Tether—the stablecoin giant that somehow always has more cash than your local bank—just made another power move. This time? Africa.
Shiga Digital, a rising fintech player, just got a juicy injection from the USDT issuer. No numbers disclosed—because why would Tether spoil the suspense?
Why it matters: While traditional finance still debates crypto regulation, stablecoins keep bulldozing borders. Africa’s crypto adoption is exploding, and Tether’s betting hard on being the continent’s digital dollar.
The cynical take: Another ‘strategic investment’ that conveniently sidesteps banking red tape. But hey—when the system’s broken, maybe you *should* build your own.
