Tether Builds Self-Custodial Wallet Tools for AI Agents

  • —WDK CLI creates named accounts, derives addresses, reads balances and sends assets
  • —An MCP server lets an AI agent connect to the same local wallet daemon as the operator
  • —Private keys remain in the local self-custodial setup without a custodial service
  • —The release is version 1.0.0-beta.3, and Tether advises testing with limited funds
Why it matters: Tether is building payment rails for autonomous AI agents, though permissions and spending limits remain unresolved.
