Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino has stated that the company will continue to prioritize non-US markets, despite a favorable stance towards cryptocurrencies from the Trump administration. Ardoino highlighted that stablecoin payment transactions are projected to reach $51.4 billion in 2024, with Tether's USDT commanding a significant market share of 62% to 91% globally. Key regions such as Singapore, Hong Kong, and Japan account for 36.3% of global stablecoin flows, surpassing the United States' 18.7%. Tether plans to focus on emerging markets in Latin America, Asia, and Africa, while remaining open to issuing new stablecoins in the US pending regulatory developments.
