Tether has introduced tether.wallet, its first consumer-facing self-custodial digital wallet supporting USDT, USAT, Tether Gold, and Bitcoin. The wallet allows users to send funds using simple identifiers like name@tether.me without gas fees, with transactions signed locally to keep private keys secure. This launch complements Tether's broader strategy of gaining institutional legitimacy through a KPMG audit and USAT stablecoin launch, while making digital dollar payments as easy as messaging for over 570 million users globally.
