Tether's USDT stablecoin has been recognized by Abu Dhabi Global Market for use across nine major blockchains, allowing licensed institutions to conduct regulated activities with USDT. This move enhances USDT's presence in the UAE's financial sector and supports its role in digital finance.

Tether will discontinue its USDT stablecoin services on five legacy blockchains: Algorand, Bitcoin Cash, EOS, Kusama, and Omni. The decision aims to refocus on platforms that support greater scalability and community engagement, with redemptions ending on September 1, 2025. This move comes in light of regulatory pressures and a decline in usage for these legacy chains.
