    <p>Tether recently announced a “strategic alliance” with rhino.fi — formerly DeversiFi, formerly Ethfinex — which Tether claims will “improve liquidity” for rhino.fi’s bridging solution.&nbsp;</p>
    <p>The genesis of rhino.fi is Ethfinex, a Tether sister firm spun out of Bitfinex with the goal of eventually creating a ‘trustless exchange.’</p>
    <p>Eventually, the trading volume associated with this was merged back into Bitfinex and the on-chain trading of tokens became the domain of DeversiFi, which was more explicitly spun out of Bitfinex with a ‘management buyout.’&nbsp;</p>
    <p>Despite this separation, DeversiFi and Bitfinex continued to collaborate closely, with Bitfinex and DeversiFi working together on a solution to transfer Tether tokens to DeversiFi’s layer-2 decentralized exchange.&nbsp;</p>
    <p>Since then, DeversiFi has rebranded as rhino.fi, <strong>attempting to enable transactions in different tokens across various chains</strong>, including Tether tokens, even before this new ‘alliance.’</p>
    <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-william-and-christopher-harborne">William and Christopher Harborne</h2>
    <p>rhino.fi is led by William Harborne, the son of Christopher Harborne. Christopher is also sometimes known as Chakrit Sakunkrit and is a shareholder in Tether’s parent company Digfinex.</p>
