Tether

Tether, launched in 2014, is a blockchain-enabled platform designed to facilitate the digital use of fiat currencies. Tether is committed to disrupting the traditional financial system through more modern methods of currency. Tether has made progress by allowing customers to transact with traditional currencies on the blockchain, without the inherent volatility and complexity typically associated with digital currencies. As the first blockchain-enabled platform to facilitate the digital use of traditional currencies (a familiar and stable accounting unit), Tether democratizes cross-border transactions on the blockchain.
