Tether and Shiga announced plans to introduce self-custodial wallets called ENTA for individuals and Pulse for institutions across Africa and the Gulf Cooperation Council. ENTA will allow users to fund wallets with local currency, U.S. dollars, or Bitcoin and hold USD₮, Bitcoin, and tokenized gold (XAU₮). Pulse targets banks and fintech firms, offering flexible deployment options to meet regulatory and operational needs. Shiga is awaiting final approval for its Nigerian Digital Asset Intermediary licence, and no launch dates or fees have been disclosed yet. This initiative aims to reduce high remittance costs and improve cross-border money transfers in these regions.
