Tether and Opera expand USDT reach in emerging markets through MiniPay
The collaboration between Tether and Opera is transforming the financial services landscape in emerging regions, significantly expanding the reach of digital assets. According to data shared by Bijie Network, this integration of USDT and Tether Gold (XAU₮) into the MiniPay wallet, built on the Celo blockchain, marks a crucial milestone for financial inclusion in developing economies.
MiniPay Achieves Historic Wallet Adoption Milestones
MiniPay’s adoption has experienced rapid growth, surpassing 12.6 million active wallets on the platform. Of these, 7 million USDT wallets have been verified via phone number, a mechanism that facilitates access to financial services without requiring complex documentation. In December 2025 alone, users conducted over 96 million USDT transactions and deposited more than $49 million in cash through local partner networks, demonstrating that the platform’s operational reach responds to real market demands.
Celo Emerges as the Fastest-Growing Chain for USDT
Celo’s recognition as the native blockchain with the fastest expansion for USDT is no coincidence. The network has achieved a user growth rate of 506% over the past year, positioning itself as the preferred platform for remittances and transactions in emerging markets. This performance reflects how blockchain solutions focused on financial inclusion are redefining access to monetary services in underserved regions.
Financial Inclusion Through Innovative Digital Solutions
The joint strategy of Tether, Opera, and Celo demonstrates that expanding financial services requires more than technology: it demands accessible wallet integration, local conversion partners, and stable assets. MiniPay acts as a bridge between the crypto ecosystem and local economies, enabling millions of users to access tools for storing and transferring value without traditional intermediaries, transforming the dynamics of financial inclusion in markets that have historically had limited access to banking services.
