Tether Partners With Chainalysis for Tokenization Upgrade
Tether, the company behind the largest stablecoin by market capitalization, USDT, has revealed a collaboration with Chainalysis.
This partnership will see Chainalysis’ compliance and monitoring capabilities incorporated into Tether’s tokenization platform.
The development aligns with the growing regulatory attention facing the cryptocurrency sector.
Hadron by Tether, introduced in November 2024, caters to institutions, corporations, and governments looking to tokenize various real-world assets, including financial products, real estate, debt, and commodities.
Following the platform’s debut, the tokenization of real-world assets has witnessed a surge in uptake.
Data from RWA.xyz shows that the RWA market now stands at $22.1 billion, reflecting a 10.5% increase over the past month.
The number of RWA token holders has also climbed 5.6% within the same period, reaching 100,115.
“By integrating Chainalysis directly into the platform, we’re offering institutional-grade transparency, compliance, and risk mitigation without compromising on decentralization or control,” Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said in a statement.
The announcement highlighted that users of Hadron by Tether will benefit from features such as risk detection, real-time monitoring of transactions, and Know-Your-Transaction (KYT) services.
Financial details of the agreement remain confidential. Tether achieved $13 billion in profits in 2024 and reported a $1 billion operating profit for the first quarter of 2025.
Chainalysis, recognized for its blockchain data solutions, provides security and monitoring services. Its client roster includes Crypto.com, Bitfinex, MoonPay, and BBVA.
In recent months, Chainalysis has expanded its capabilities, acquiring the Web3 security firm Hexagate in December 2024 and the AI-based fraud detection startup Alterya in January 2025.
Founded in 2014, the company has forecasted that 2025 will mark the highest year on record for crypto scams, attributing this to advancements in artificial intelligence.
