A new US Senate report alleges that Tether's USDT stablecoin plays a central role in financing Iranian proxy groups, according to reporting by Gizmodo. The findings add to mounting regulatory scrutiny of Tether, which has repeatedly faced accusations that its dollar-pegged token is used for sanctions evasion and illicit finance. The report is likely to intensify calls in Washington for tighter oversight of stablecoins and their issuers.
