“Tether is the life blood of DeFi”

“Tether is the life blood of DeFi, and an important pillar of the crypto community at large. In order for developers to leverage the real potential of Solana, an integration with USDt was absolutely essential. Solana was originally designed to support thousands of transactions at Nasdaq speed. Today, with Tether’s support, Solana is finally capable of realizing that dream.”

After its integration with the Solana blockchain, the stablecoin is now supported on eight different blockchains. The other seven blockchains where USDT is available are the Ethereum blockchain, Algorand, Liquid Network, OMG Network, the Tron blockchain, Omni, and the EOS blockchain.
