Hi bro 🤟🏴☠️😉 This move by Tether is significant for a few reasons. Their investment in Rumble last month and now in Be Water shows a clear strategy to diversify and expand beyond cryptocurrency. By investing in media companies, Tether is tapping into the broader landscape of tech-driven content and global narratives, which is vital as media influence grows in shaping public perception and discourse.
The strategic aim could be to build a more decentralized ecosystem, possibly enabling the cryptocurrency space to have a more direct role in the narrative around tech and media. Given the current trend of decentralization and the shift away from traditional media, this could position Tether to have a strong foothold in influencing the content and narrative of global markets in a way that aligns with blockchain and cryptocurrency ideals.
It’s also worth noting that Tether has been quite involved in the development of its broader ecosystem, which includes facilitating the use of its stablecoin in a variety of real-world scenarios. By investing in media companies, they can bridge the gap between traditional sectors and blockchain, perhaps further mainstreaming decentralized technologies.
This raises questions about the long-term impact of such investments and how they might shape the future of both media and finance. Will Tether seek to leverage this media presence to enhance its position as a stablecoin in the broader economic system, or is it about building broader influence in tech and information industries? Only time will tell.
Nice. 🤟👊 Time will tell. I believe Tether's vision is exceptionally broad as well, not just getting their fingers into tomorrows decentralised media pie but reaching into areas like brain-computer interfacing and other fields once thought to be pure science fiction. Technology is on the brink of an exponential leap. This tectonic shift is also a game of musical chairs—those with foresight will be the ones rewarded.
