Tether, the world’s largest stablecoin company, has donated $250,000 to OpenSats, a nonprofit that supports open-source Bitcoin projects and “freedom tech.” The move aims to help developers and researchers build tools that protect privacy and promote financial independence.
OpenSats funds projects that make Bitcoin stronger and more accessible. The group also backs developers creating privacy tools and education programs that teach people about open-source systems.
Every dollar donated goes directly to grantees, while operations are supported through separate funds, keeping things transparent and community-driven.

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said the company believes in “a freer and decentralized future” built on Bitcoin and open-source software. He added that supporting OpenSats helps “the next generation of innovators” who are pushing this vision forward.
A Step Toward a Freer Future
Since its founding, OpenSats has given over 300 grants to developers building what it calls “freedom tech.” With Tether’s new donation, the nonprofit plans to expand its reach and continue supporting global Bitcoin development.
Co-founder Matt Odell said that Tether’s support will help OpenSats “scale its mission globally” and continue to empower those who build tools for digital freedom.
