Today, Tether Holdings Limited (Tether) the technology company supporting the blockchain-enabled platform that powers the largest stablecoin by market capitalization (USD₮), announced a significant update to its assurance and attestation processes.

Tether officially began working with BDO Italia, the Italian member firm of BDO global organization, the top five ranked global independent public accounting firm, in July 2022 for its quarterly attestations. With this alignment, Tether will also focus on moving towards releasing its attestations from a quarterly basis to monthly reports.

Tether is committed to not only lead in innovative technology, but also in transparency and accountability to its customers who use stablecoins to make tens of billions of dollars in trades every day.

“We are committed to serving the fast-growing cryptocurrency market as the strongest stable asset in the Web3 economy,” said Paolo Ardoino, CTO of Tether. “The utility of Tether has grown beyond being just a tool for quickly moving in and out of trading positions, and therefore it is mission-critical for us to scale alongside the peer-to-peer and payments markets. Tether’s commitment to transparency is not something new. It aligns with its leadership’s responsibility as a market leader to educate the world about stablecoin technology.”
