Tether has introduced its USDT USDT $0.9989 stablecoin to the Kaia blockchain through a partnership with Line Next, the Web3 division of Japan’s messaging app, LINE.

With this collaboration, USDT can now be used within LINE’s Mini DApp ecosystem and its self-custodial wallet.

This means users will be able to make in-app payments, transfer money across borders, and take part in decentralized finance (DeFi) activities without needing to leave the app they already use every day.
