Tether has invested in one of the public chains, @stable, and another one is plasma. @stable is a blockchain optimized specifically for stablecoins, a unicorn in the stablecoin sector. Its core idea is to use USDT as gas, paying transaction fees with USDT, and even enabling peer-to-peer transfers that appear to have zero gas fees. The experience feels closer to directly paying with digital dollars. The official positioning is to create a smoother payment rail for USDT. In July 2025, it completed a $28 million seed round, led by Bitfinex and Hack VC, with participation from Franklin Templeton, KuCoin Ventures, and others. Angels and advisors include Tether’s Paolo Ardoino and more. On October 23, there’s big news today—video hints at the formation of the foundation. It might involve deposits or new products.
