Alloy by Tether introduces tethered assets that track reference asset prices through over-collateralization and secondary market liquidity pools.

Users can create aUSDT tokens using XAUT as collateral.

The smart contracts for Alloy by Tether are deployed on the Ethereum Mainnet. Users can mint aUSDT by depositing XAUT as collateral, with transparency ensured by smart contracts and Price Oracles. Alloy by Tether allows for the creation of various tethered assets, including potential yield-bearing products.

Moon Gold NA and Moon Gold El Salvador manage the issuance and management of Alloy by Tether. Tether seeks a $1 billion investment in future A.I. and A.I. technology ventures. Recently, Tether invested $200 million in Blackrock Neurotech, a neural implant firm competing with Elon Musk’s Neuralink.

Tether to Invest $1bn Over Next Year

Tether plans to invest $1 billion in infrastructure, A.I., and A.I. development over the next 12 months, according to CEO Paolo Ardoino. Additionally, Tether has provided significant financial backing to the XREX Group to enhance innovative financial solutions and create efficient cross-border B2B payment gateways.
