On Friday, Tether announced that it had entered into a subscription agreement with Bitdeer to buy up to $150 million worth of shares in a private placement.

On Thursday, the private placement transaction yielded $100 million in gross proceeds from the share issuance, with the chance to raise an additional $50 million if the warrant is fully exercised. 
“We regard Bitdeer as one of the strongest vertically integrated operators in the Bitcoin mining industry, differentiated by its cutting-edge technologies, and a robust R&amp;D organization,” said <a href="https://crypto.news/tether-mints-1-billion-usdt-on-ethereum-forecasting-an-etf-approval/" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tether-mints-1-billion-usdt-on-ethereum-forecasting-an-etf-approval/" rel="">Paolo Ardoino</a>, CEO of <a href="https://crypto.news/tether-launches-testing-phase-for-bitcoin-mining-platform/" target="_blank" data-type="link" data-id="https://crypto.news/tether-launches-testing-phase-for-bitcoin-mining-platform/" rel="">Tether</a>, in the press release. “Bitdeer’s proven track record and world-class management team are perfectly aligned with Tether’s long-term strategic vision. We anticipate close collaboration with Bitdeer across several key infrastructure areas moving forward.”
