Tether, the company behind the largest stablecoin in the world, has announced a change in its top executives. Paolo Ardoino, the current Chief Technology Officer (CTO), will take over as CEO starting in December 2023. Ardoino will replace Jean Lous van der Velde, the current CEO, who will assume a new position as an advisor for Tether. However, van der Velde will remain as the CEO of Bitfinex, a crypto exchange. Ardoino has been with Tether since 2017 and has played a significant role in its success. Under his leadership, Tether’s stablecoin USDT has become the number one digital asset globally, and the company has become a major player in both the crypto space and traditional finance. The transition to a new CEO has been carefully planned, and Ardoino’s appointment reflects the company’s commitment to the future growth of the crypto industry. Tether has expanded beyond the crypto space by becoming one of the largest holders of US debt, reporting nearly $1 billion in profits in its latest quarterly report. Despite its success, Tether has faced controversy and accusations of manipulation and shady practices. The company has denied these allegations. As of now, Bitcoin is trading at $26,900 with sideways price action on low timeframes.
