It will alleviate the potential adverse effects associated with market volatility. Provide a stable currency to generate yield, and move in and out of the network.

Polkadot is on a trajectory of growth and evolution this year and we believe Tether’s addition will be essential in helping it continue to thrive.” —  Paolo Ardoino, CTO at Tether
