Stablecoin issuer Tether has introduced a wallet development kit (WDK) enabling developers and businesses to integrate non-custodian wallets for Bitcoin and USDT into apps and websites.
WDK Wallet Development Kit Features
According to a recent announcement, the WDK wallet development kit is designed for both human and digital entities, including AI agents, robots, and autonomous systems. This new software aligns with the core principles of decentralized and permissionless financial systems, emphasizing user sovereignty and control.
Non-Custodial and Customizable Solutions
The WDK offers a non-custodial and modular approach, which Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino describes as essential for creating programmable, open, and resilient monetary systems. This kit allows developers to customize and build wallets tailored to specific needs, reinforcing Tetherβs commitment to decentralization.
Initial and Future Support
Initially, the WDK will support Bitcoin and USDT, with plans to expand to all blockchains supported by Tetherβs stablecoins. Future enhancements will include UI templates to streamline wallet deployment across various platforms.
Tether, currently the worldβs largest stablecoin, boasts a market cap of over $124 billion. The majority of Tetherβs circulating supply is held on Tron and Ethereum, accounting for 46.8% and 42.31% of the total, respectively.
Tetherβs Involvement in the AI Sector
The launch of the AI-supported development kit aligns with Tetherβs commitment to integrating AI technology. Earlier this year, Tether established an AI division to develop open-source AI models aimed at addressing real-world challenges.
In an August interview, Ardoino highlighted the importance of decentralization in AI, emphasizing its potential to offer crucial independence in a heavily politicized field. Tetherβs investment strategy focuses on supporting AI projects that promote decentralization and financial freedom, challenging the centralized control of major tech players.
Local AI SDK
Last month, Tether unveiled its AI SDK, named “Local AI,” during the Plan βΏ event in Lugano, Switzerland. This SDK provides a privacy-focused platform for running AI models locally on various devices, further showcasing Tetherβs dedication to advancing AI technology.
