Tether, a cryptocurrency company, has launched a new platform called Hadron, aimed at servicing institutions, corporations, fund managers, and governments. Hadron provides tokenization services for various assets, including stocks, bonds, stablecoins, and loyalty points. The platform offers seamless asset issuance, management, and investment opportunities through regulatory and security frameworks, as well as compliance tools like Know-Your-Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), and Know-Your-Transaction.
Hadron will be available on multiple smart-contract-enabled blockchains, including Bitcoin layer-2 solutions like Blockstream’s Liquid. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino sees the platform as a way to make asset tokenization easier, secure, and scalable, while also making the digital asset space more accessible and transparent, ultimately creating new business opportunities and building an inclusive future.
