According to Paolo Ardoino, Tether is set to release its Wallet Development Kit (WDK) template as a fully open-source, non-custodial wallet solution. The WDK enables seamless bridging to mask blockchain complexity and supports gasless transactions, all without requiring API keys, giving users full control over their assets (source: @paoloardoino, May 9, 2025). This move will empower developers to create up to 1 trillion new wallets, enhancing scalability and usability for stablecoin trading. The initiative is expected to significantly boost stablecoin adoption and drive on-chain activity, potentially increasing demand for USDT and related DeFi protocols, which could impact liquidity and trading volumes across major crypto exchanges.
