Tether’s Pitch To DC: We Help Keep US Dollar Strong Globally

• Tether CEO Ardoino met US lawmakers to shape stablecoin regulation
• Pitched USDT as tool supporting global US dollar reach & financial inclusion
• Warned against MiCA-style rules that could hinder global dollar access

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino ended his first visit to the United States, where he met with lawmakers in Washington, D.C., to discuss the future of stablecoin regulation. Ardoino’s meetings with Senate and House members centered on crafting laws that consider national security while also promoting global financial inclusion.

Ardoino framed the discussion partly as a response to global efforts challenging US dollar dominance. He argued for stablecoin rules that protect consumers but crucially also support the dollar’s adoption internationally – a role he positions Tether’s USDT as already playing.
