Tether Aims to Expand Commodity Lending to $5 Billion by 2026

Tether is expanding its lending services to the commodity market, aiming to reach a lending pool of $5 billion by 2026. This move leverages an already deployed $1.5 billion for loans to traders in sectors like oil and agriculture. Tether Holdings SA, under CEO Paolo Ardoino, emphasizes this strategic shift as it addresses credit gaps left vacant by traditional banks, potentially impacting the stability of USDT’s market position. This expansion is driven by projected profits that will facilitate further growth through 2026.
