Odaily Planet Daily News: Tether, the world's largest stablecoin issuer, plans to launch a dollar-pegged stablecoin in the United States as early as this year. CEO Paolo Ardoino said at the Token2049 conference that the specific time depends on the progress of US legislation, which may be at the end of the year or early next year. Tether has recently actively lobbied in Washington, meeting with Senator Bill Hagerty and others to promote cryptocurrency-friendly policies. Ardoino emphasized Tether's cooperation with law enforcement agencies and said it holds nearly $120 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds and reserves of more than $5.6 billion to cope with market fluctuations.
