Tether Operations Limited

At the heart of Tether is a story of relentless innovation and a profound belief in technology's power to empower humanity. Born in 2014 from a revolutionary idea to merge the stability of traditional currency with the efficiency of the blockchain, our journey began with a simple goal: to solve inefficiencies in the financial system. Our founders, a passionate group of early crypto adopters, envisioned a common settlement network that could transcend the slow, restrictive boundaries of legacy banking. This vision gave birth to USD₮, the world's first and most trusted stablecoin, a tool designed to provide stability and liquidity to the burgeoning digital asset ecosystem. Our culture is one of resilience and a constant drive to break barriers, fueled by the principle of individual sovereignty.

Over the years, our mission has evolved far beyond its original scope. Witnessing USD₮ become a lifeline for millions in emerging markets, especially during times of economic instability, reinforced our commitment to fostering financial freedom for all. It became a tool for preserving wealth against inflation, enabling cross-border trade, and accessing a global financial system. This experience inspired us to broaden our horizons. Today, Tether stands on five pillars of innovation: Finance, Power, Data, Education, and Evolution. We are pioneering sustainable Bitcoin mining practices to redefine the industry's environmental footprint. Through our support for P2P communication platforms and AI infrastructure, we champion decentralized, private, and open technologies. We are investing in democratizing education and even exploring the frontiers of human potential with neurotechnology. We are not just building financial tools; we are shaping a future where everyone, regardless of their geography or economic status, has the opportunity to be self-sustainable, independent, and free.
