Tether is in advanced talks to invest around €1 billion in German humanoid-robotics firm Neura Robotics, according to recent reports. 

The move signals one of the clearest shifts yet in Tether’s strategy as the world’s largest stablecoin issuer pushes beyond USDT ($1.00) and into high-technology sectors.

Tethers Is Betting Big On AI Robotics

The proposed investment would value Neura between €8 billion and €10 billion. 

However, the scale of the talks underscores a broader pattern. Tether has spent the past year diversifying into AI infrastructure, robotics, and real-world technology. 

Earlier this year, the company secured access to a 20,000-GPU compute network to build its AI research environment. It also explored major exposure to Neura’s cognitive-robotics platform, which includes humanoid systems designed for industrial and commercial work.

At the same time, Tether has expanded through financial-market partnerships. Its “Hadron by Tether” platform signed agreements with KraneShares and Bitfinex Securities to accelerate tokenized securities adoption. 

The company also deepened its presence in public-sector digital infrastructure through a collaboration with Da Nang city in Vietnam.

These moves come as Tether’s reserves grow. The company reported more than $135 billion in US Treasury exposure and expects record profits this year, giving it unusually large liquidity for private-market deals. 

That financial capacity appears to be funding its push into AI, robotics, and digital-governance technology.

Yet questions remain. Neither Tether nor Neura has confirmed the final size or structure of the investment. 

Analysts note that mass-producing humanoid robots carries technical and supply-chain risk, and the projected valuation depends on Neura scaling production quickly.

Still, Tether’s direction is clear. The firm is moving from a stablecoin-only business to a broader technology investor, tying its future to sectors far beyond digital assets.
