Tether, the issuer of Tether (USDT), the largest stablecoin in the cryptocurrency market, announced on Wednesday, June 19th that it will partner with Taiwan’s National Taipei University of Science and Technology (NTUT). The partnership aims to develop and implement educational programs on blockchain technology and digital assets, marking a major step in nurturing talent for the next generation of technological innovation.
In recent years, as the practical applications of digital assets have expanded, such as the spread of online casino Tether, this partnership is expected to provide important educational opportunities not only from a technical perspective, but also from a legal and ethical perspective. Therefore, this article will provide a detailed explanation of the content of this educational project jointly implemented by Tether and National Taipei University of Science and Technology.
Tether and National Taipei University of Technology Partnership
Tether announced on its official website that it has partnered with National Taipei University of Technology to promote the “Blockchain and Digital Assets” educational program.
The program will cover a wide range of areas, including providing basic knowledge, cultivating critical thinking, educating risk awareness and investment principles, understanding legal regulations, and providing industry insights and career prospects. The program has already been implemented at the university’s School of Business, and due to its success, other universities are deciding to introduce the program one after another.
Through this partnership, Tether will use its expertise in blockchain technology, digital assets, Bitcoin, and stablecoins to advance academic programs and research initiatives.
What is Tether?
Tether is one of the most widely circulated stablecoins in the cryptocurrency market. A stablecoin is a cryptocurrency designed for price stability, and in the case of Tether, 1 USDT is pegged to the value of 1 US dollar.
USDT is primarily used on cryptocurrency exchanges and is widely used as a trading pair with other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. And its stable value is useful for traders to temporarily store assets and use as a base currency for trading in the highly volatile cryptocurrency market.
What is National Taipei University of Technology?
National Taipei University of Technology is a national technical university located in Taipei, the capital of Taiwan. Founded in 1912, it is one of the oldest technical universities in Taiwan and has a high reputation in fields such as engineering, science and technology, design, and management.

The objective of the activities is to promote the accessibility of digital skills development and to promote self-development and self-actualization.
In addition, Tether Edu plans to cover markets around the world, with a particular focus on emerging markets in Africa, Latin America, the Middle East, Europe, and Asia.
In fact, recently, the National Bank of Georgia has strengthened its partnership with Ripple, and has collaborated with the Digital Industry Academy in Georgia, where digitalization is accelerating. We are working to expand digital education on a global scale.
Future Outlook of Tether
Tether’s future outlook will be to internationalize its educational programs, paving the way for innovations born from students’ research projects to be put into practical use as real business solutions. And the success of this partnership will have a ripple effect on other universities and companies, and similar efforts may be further expanded.
In addition, the knowledge accumulated through the educational program may lead to constructive dialogue with regulators in the future. In addition, it is expected that the ideas generated from this program and the talent cultivated will encourage the creation of new startups and contribute to the development of the startup ecosystem in the blockchain and digital asset fields.
These perspectives suggest that Tether’s education program could go beyond being just an educational initiative and have a broader impact across the industry.
