Tether has chosen gold to back its new synthetic dollar, aUSDT, due to its relative stability compared to Bitcoin, according to Tether’s CEO Paolo Ardoino in a recent interview with Bloomberg.

Tether 首席执行官 Paolo Ardoino 最近在接受彭博社采访时表示，Tether 选择黄金来支持其新的合成美元 aUSDT，因为与比特币相比，黄金相对稳定。

“Gold is probably the best asset to make that happen because it’s much less volatile than Bitcoin. We put up to Bitcoin, but gold is then is probably a better choice for the short term,” explained Ardoino.

“黄金可能是实现这一目标的最佳资产，因为它的波动性比比特币小得多。我们支持比特币，但从短期来看，黄金可能是更好的选择。”Ardoino 解释道。

Introduced in June, aUSDT is over-collateralized by Tether Gold (XAUT) and is part of Tether’s new Alloy by Tether platform, which is intended for creating various tethered assets.

aUSDT 于 6 月推出，由 Tether Gold (XAUT) 超额抵押，是 Tether 新 Alloy by Tether 平台的一部分，该平台旨在创建各种系留资产。

With the synthetic dollar, Tether seeks to increase confidence and transparency within the crypto market. Paolo believes that backing a digital asset with a tangible commodity like gold will instill greater confidence in users.

Tether 试图通过合成美元来增强加密货币市场的信心和透明度。 Paolo 认为，用黄金等有形商品支持数字资产将为用户注入更大的信心。

“It’s very, very important for us to research new ways of providing confidence to our user base and prove also to technology based on blockchain,” said Ardoino. “So until 1971, the US dollar was backed by gold.”

“对我们来说，研究为我们的用户群提供信心并证明基于区块链的技术的新方法非常非常重要，”Ardoino 说。 “所以直到 1971 年，美元都是由黄金支撑的。”

In addition, there’s a demand for alternative options to Tether’s USDT stablecoin, especially in countries experiencing economic instability, according to Ardoino. He noted that the new currency is meant to offer a more stable and transparent option.

此外，Ardoino 表示，人们需要 Tether 的 USDT 稳定币的替代选择，特别是在经济不稳定的国家。他指出，新货币旨在提供更稳定和透明的选择。

“We see also the opportunity to provide an opportunity for others that want to see a more transparent backing of our synthetic dollar,” Ardoino added.

“我认为这次选举对于加密行业来说非常非常重要。我们看到所有候选人都在关注美国加密货币支持的现状，”他表示。

Commenting on the regulatory environment surrounding US crypto businesses, Ardoino pointed out that the country has not always been supportive of crypto.
