Tether expands into AI, targeting 650M users with practical apps beyond crypto.

Tether is broadening its business by integrating artificial intelligence tools aimed at its global user base of over 650 million, especially in emerging markets. CEO Paolo Ardoino emphasized the focus on practical AI applications in health, finance, and sports that can operate on basic smartphones, rather than advanced AI models. This move aligns with Tether's shift from being just a crypto company to a digital dollar and infrastructure provider. Backed by a $6.8 billion reserve surplus confirmed by KPMG, Tether plans to leverage its extensive network and financial strength to expand AI services beyond its core stablecoin business.
