Tether USAT Stablecoin Expands to Celo Blockchain

Tether has expanded its USAT stablecoin to the Celo blockchain, marking its second mainnet deployment after Ethereum. The move reflects Tether's strategy of offering compliant stablecoin infrastructure while expanding into networks designed for fast and low-cost payments.

USAT users on Celo can now pay transaction fees directly with the stablecoin thanks to the network's gas abstraction technology, removing the need to hold CELO for basic transfers. This simplifies payments and reduces friction for businesses and individuals using digital dollars in everyday transactions.

The integration strengthens Celo's growing role in stablecoin payments, where it already ranks among the leading networks for USDT activity and cross-chain transfers. Tether's USAT Stablecoin Expands Across Celo
