Tether-Backed USAT Goes Live for Agentic Payments on Celo Network

  • —USAT is the sixth stablecoin on the x402.celo.org facilitator
  • —Celo is the first network to enable x402 payments in USAT
  • —USAT joins USDT and USDC as the third dollar-backed asset
  • —Celo already supports native USAT mint and burn and gas payments
Why it matters: The integration expands USAT's use in AI-agent payments and sharpens stablecoin competition on Celo infrastructure.
