Tether's USAT stablecoin shields USDT from US regulation, keeping $183B offshore coin outside compliance.

Tether launched USAT, a US-compliant stablecoin, to meet federal rules while keeping its main $183 billion USDT stablecoin offshore and outside US regulation. USAT operates under strict US oversight, but USDT holds diverse assets like gold and bitcoin that don't meet US rules, allowing it to serve global markets outside US reach. This two-coin structure lets Tether maintain profitability and global use without fully complying with US law. By 2028, US exchanges must delist non-compliant coins, making USAT the regulated US option while USDT remains offshore, raising concerns about US regulatory gaps over a major dollar instrument.
