Tether plans an AI-powered mobile wallet using WDK and QVAC, focusing on self-custody, privacy, and on-chain automation. The wallet will support cryptocurrency functionality in addition to artificial intelligence capabilities, and the company is actively hiring a Lead Software Engineer to spearhead its development. The wallet technology is built on WDK, which enables 100% self-custodial wallets and eliminates custodial risks in line with decentralization principles.
Native on-chain payments are integrated into the wallet, allowing transfers of USDT and Bitcoin directly within AI-enabled applications. Autonomous AI agents could manage transactions without intermediaries, and Tether Data is developing tools such as AI Translate and AI Voice Assistant, including an AI Bitcoin Wallet Assistant for balances and transactions by voice or text commands. The roadmap emphasizes direct user control and automation, applying AI to self-custody to make blockchain usage easier. All transactions remain on-chain and user-authorized, and the open-source, peer-to-peer design avoids centralized servers, reducing data exposure and aligning with decentralization goals.
