Tether Seeks Big Four Full Audit as Celo Reports 5M+ Weekly USDT Users

Tether says it has begun the process of commissioning a full audit by a Big Four accounting firm, expanding its disclosures beyond periodic reserve attestations. On March 23, 2026, Celo reported more than 5 million weekly stablecoin users and 7.2 million+ stablecoin transactions last week, pointing to rising USDT utility. The move comes as a draft of the US Clarity Act sparks fresh concerns about potential restrictions on stablecoin yields and related rewards models.
