What else is known? Tether Edu, as a division of the USDT issuer, will coordinate global education programs organized with the company. The initiative aims to make digital education more accessible.

“Tether Edu aims to bridge knowledge gaps, empower individuals, and ignite economic growth. In our conviction, educational initiatives such as Tether Edu are not just enriching minds; they are architecting the foundations of economic empowerment and prosperity on a global scale,” said Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino.

Last May, Tether launched blockchain education courses at Georgia’s Business and Technology University (BTU). Lectures were given by both local and foreign experts. In July 2022, the company organized courses in the Swiss city of Lugano. They were attended by students from 29 countries, including Taiwan, Ukraine, Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia.

In January this year, Tether filed applications with Rospatent for trademark registration.

Earlier, JPMorgan analysts said that the growing share of USDT in the total volume of stablecoins negatively affects the crypto ecosystem due to the opacity of the asset.
