According to ChainCatcher news, as reported by Cointelegraph, Tether Holdings SA announced that it has deployed approximately $1.5 billion in credit lines to the commodity trade finance sector and plans to “significantly expand” this business. The company stated that it will utilize its asset reserves, which amount to nearly $200 billion, to provide loans in the form of USD and its stablecoin USDT, covering commodity trading such as oil, cotton, and wheat. This move is seen as Tether's strategic transformation from a single stablecoin issuer to a comprehensive platform of “digital assets + trade finance,” which may promote further integration of stablecoins with traditional physical assets.
