We are now in the future where all this is being achieved, and we are proud to be part of the driving force that makes this happen. With the launch of the 1 USD₮ store, users and merchants alike can be part of a new era of convenient, transparent, and rewarding digital transactions,” said Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether.
