Tether, the issuer of the world’s leading stablecoin USDT, has announced a major expansion of its asset availability within Opera’s MiniPay crypto wallet. The integration introduces support for both USDT and Tether Gold (XAUT) to MiniPay users, significantly broadening the utility and financial options available, particularly in key African markets.
MiniPay, which operates on the Celo blockchain, is designed to provide highly accessible and low-cost crypto transactions directly through the popular Opera Mini browser. The addition of USDT addresses the critical need for a stable, dollar-pegged currency in regions struggling with high inflation and local currency volatility. By leveraging Opera’s vast user base—particularly strong in Nigeria, Kenya, and Ghana—Tether aims to facilitate easier cross-border remittances and everyday transactions.
Furthermore, the inclusion of Tether Gold (XAUT), a tokenized representation of physical gold, offers users a crucial tool for diversification and wealth preservation, moving beyond simple stablecoin usage into tokenized real-world assets. This strategic partnership underscores both Tether’s and Opera’s commitment to driving financial inclusion and accelerating mainstream Web3 adoption by offering robust, high-demand assets directly within an easily accessible mobile platform.
