Tether Invests In LayerZero Labs Interoperability

Tether’s investment arm invested in LayerZero Labs, the developer of a cross-chain interoperability protocol, according to a Feb. 10 press release. Tether said the move supports production-grade interoperability infrastructure that, combined with its Wallet Development Kit, will enable real-time transfers, agentic AI wallets, and large-scale stablecoin payments and settlements. The investment follows Tether’s recent $100 million stake in Anchorage Digital and underscores stablecoins’ growing role in wholesale banking.
