An interview with Tether's CEO, Paolo Ardoino, examines the cryptocurrency's evolving relationship with US authorities. Ardoino argues Tether, once viewed with suspicion, now actively collaborates with law enforcement and aids in stabilising the US dollar. He highlights Tether's role in decentralising US debt by facilitating access for users in emerging markets. Ardoino also addresses concerns about illicit use of Tether, defending its anti-money-laundering efforts as superior to traditional banking. He expresses optimism about a more crypto-friendly regulatory approach from the incoming Trump administration, particularly with Howard Lutnick as Secretary of Commerce. The piece suggests Tether is striving to be a legitimate player, supporting the dollar's dominance rather than undermining it.
