Tether, the world’s largest stablecoin issuer, has announced that it would also issue USDT on the Kava network, which was built and launched in 2018. The Kava network is built with a collaborative Blockchain design that combines the flexibility of the Ethereum virtual machine with speed, low transaction fees, and the interoperability of Cosmos’ software development kit, one of the largest organic ecosystems in the cryptocurrency world, according to the company.

According to Tether, the Kava network’s unique design lets users make use of Cosmos’ “zones” feature on the protocol. Kava revealed last month that it had deployed the “Kava 13” mainnet update, which upgraded its infrastructure to provide customers with increased security, scalability, functionality, and processing speed.

“The Kava network is a unique and widely followed blockchain with a robust track record of four years with zero security issues, which is essential to protecting USDT users. Together, we aim to reshape the future of decentralized finance, fostering a robust and inclusive ecosystem that benefits users worldwide.”

The integration of USDT into the Kava network has extended the number of networks to which USDT is exported to eight. Prior to Kava, USDT could be issued on a variety of networks, including Ethereum, Solana, Algorand, EOS, Liquid Network, Omni, and Tron.

After the news, the price of KAVA, the native token of the Kava network, skyrocketed. At the time of writing, USDT is trading at 0.917, seeing a gain of more than 12% on the day.
