NiftyNoon: Can Tether Make Crypto AI “Real” with Tether AI? 🚀🔗💸
Stablecoin issuer Tether announces Tether AI, an open-source platform featuring integrated crypto payment capabilities via its Wallet Development Kit (May 6, 2025)
Nifty Thought:
Stablecoin issuer Tether is venturing into artificial intelligence with its upcoming platform, "Tether AI," announced by CEO Paolo Ardoino. Described as a tool for "personal infinite intelligence," Tether AI is designed as a fully open-source AI runtime capable of adapting and evolving on any hardware or device. Ardoino emphasized that the platform will operate without API keys or central points of failure, aiming to create an "unstoppable peer-to-peer network".
A key feature of Tether AI will be its integrated support for peer-to-peer payments using both Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether's own stablecoin (USDT). This functionality will be "infused" using Tether's Wallet Development Kit (WDK), an open-source toolkit launched previously that enables developers to build self-custodial wallets. This approach gives users complete control over their assets, bypassing reliance on third-party custodians. The launch of Tether AI signifies a broader strategic move by the company to expand its focus beyond stablecoins and into AI development.
