This investment follows Tether's recent introduction of four new business divisions, including Tether Data, Tether Finance, Tether Power, and Tether Edu, signaling the company's expansion into diverse areas of business.

Founded in 2008, Blackrock Neurotech has been at the forefront of developing advanced brain-computer interfaces for individuals with paralysis, loss of function, and neurological disorders. Through Blackrock Neurotech's groundbreaking brain interface technology, patients have been able to operate robotic arms, control wheelchairs, communicate messages, and even browse the internet using the power of their thoughts.

Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, expressed his enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating: “Blackrock Neurotech is just the beginning of our journey through Tether Evo to venture into projects that redefine the boundaries of what’s possible at the intersection of technological innovation and human potential. Tether has long believed in nurturing emerging technologies that have transformative capabilities, and the Brain-Computer-Interfaces of Blackrock Neurotech have the potential to open new realms of communication, rehabilitation, and cognitive enhancement.”

Tether's $200 million investment aims to support the commercialization and wider adoption of medical solutions that have already shown success in more than 40 individuals. The funding will also contribute to enhancing Blackrock Neurotech's research and development efforts, ensuring its position as a major player in the field of brain-computer interfaces in the future. The long-term focus of the partnership is on human evolution and pushing the boundaries of what technology can achieve.
