Tether has notched its 500 millionth user of its USDT stablecoin, an achievement its CEO Paolo Ardoino said is “likely the biggest financial inclusion achievement in history.”
US dollar-pegged stablecoin Tether hit its 500 millionth user on Tuesday, according to its CEO Paolo Ardoino, offering a means to transact and save for those who have been excluded by the traditional banking system.
“Likely the biggest financial inclusion achievement in history,” Ardoino wrote in a post on X.
Tether said the figure represents 500 million “real people,” not simply Tether (USDT) wallets, suggesting its stablecoin has now been used by around 6.25% of the world’s population.
