      Tether Partners with Shiga to Enhance Self-Custodial Finance in Africa and GCC

      Tether has announced a strategic investment in Shiga Digital, a fintech startup based in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, aimed at expanding self-custodial digital asset products across Africa and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. This partnership will utilize Tether's open-source Wallet Development Kit (WDK) to create financial infrastructure that enables businesses and individuals to hold and transact in Tether's USDT stablecoin without the need for centralized custodians.

      Founded in 2016, Shiga Digital specializes in addressing the financial challenges faced by pan-African commerce, offering services such as virtual accounts and treasury management tools. Its flagship product, the Enta wallet, employs passkeys and biometric authentication instead of traditional seed phrases, supporting transactions in USDT, Bitcoin, and tokenized gold. Shiga has processed over $350 million in transactions and holds a DIFC Innovation License, ensuring compliance with regulations across various African and Gulf countries.

      The collaboration comes at a time when many African economies are grappling with currency depreciation, making stablecoins like USDT an attractive option for businesses seeking to protect their capital. In the GCC, countries like the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar are actively positioning themselves as digital finance hubs, with Abu Dhabi's regulatory framework fostering fintech innovation. Shiga's strategy of partnering with licensed financial transmitters in each market indicates a commitment to sustainable growth in the region's evolving financial landscape.
