Tether was launched in 2014, originally under the name RealCoin, with the aim of facilitating the use of fiat currencies in a digital way. Tether aims to provide the ability to transact with traditional currencies across the entire blockchain, without the typical volatility and complexity of a digital currency. USDT does not have its own blockchain. It works as a second-layer token on other blockchains: Bitcoin, Ethereum, EOS, Tron, Algorand, Bitcoin Cash and OMG. These transport protocols consist of open source software linked to blockchains to enable the exchange of Tether tokens. Each Tether token is 100% backed by its reserves, which include traditional currencies and cash equivalents.
