這標誌著Tether首次參與創投，為區塊鏈領域創投的成長做出了實質貢獻。

Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, expressed optimism about the collaboration with Arcanum Capital, stating that the partnership between the two companies will lead to the creation of innovative tools that can empower individuals during challenging times.

Tether 執行長 Paolo Ardoino 對與 Arcanum Capital 的合作表示樂觀，並表示兩家公司之間的合作將導致創新工具的創建，這些工具可以在充滿挑戰的時期為個人提供幫助。

“In a world increasingly shaped by geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty, the need for resilient technology to safeguard our freedoms has never been more crucial,” said Ardoino in a statement.

阿多伊諾在一份聲明中表示：“在一個日益受到地緣政治緊張局勢和宏觀經濟不確定性影響的世界中，對保護我們自由的彈性技術的需求變得前所未有的重要。”

James McDowall, Managing Partner of Arcanum Capital, said Tether's investment aligns with Arcanum's goal of creating transformative technologies that further advance the blockchain space.

Arcanum Capital 執行合夥人 James McDowall 表示，Tether 的投資符合 Arcanum 創造變革性技術以進一步推動區塊鏈領域發展的目標。

“We are honored to have Tether as a founding investor in our second fund,” said McDowall. “Their contribution not only signals a strong vote of confidence in us as asset managers, but also validates our unique mission and approach.”

「我們很榮幸 Tether 作為我們第二支基金的創始投資者，」麥克道爾說。 “他們的貢獻不僅表明對我們作為資產管理公司投下了強烈的信任票，而且還驗證了我們獨特的使命和方法。”

Earlier this month, Tether's CEO unveiled the areas in which the firm has invested, including Bitcoin mining, TradFi, and commodity trade. As Arcanum Capital marks the first time that Tether has invested in a venture capital fund, it remains to be seen whether the stablecoin will make similar investments in the future.

本月早些時候，Tether 執行長公佈了該公司投資的領域，包括比特幣挖礦、TradFi 和大宗商品貿易。由於 Arcanum Capital 標誌著 Tether 首次投資創投基金，因此該穩定幣未來是否會進行類似的投資仍有待觀察。
