According to recent reports, Tether is in talks to invest around 1 billion euros in German humanoid robot company Neura Robotics.
The move marks one of the most obvious changes yet in Tether’s strategy as the world’s largest stablecoin issuer moves beyond USDT and into the tech space.
Tethers is betting big on AI robotics
The proposed investment is expected to value Neura at between €8 billion and €10 billion.

But the scale of the talks highlights a broader pattern. Tether has spent the past year diversifying into AI infrastructure, robotics, and real-world technologies.
Earlier this year, the company secured access to a 20,000 GPU computing network to build an AI research environment. We also explored Neura’s key exposure to cognitive robotics platforms, including humanoid systems designed for industrial and commercial tasks.
At the same time, Tether has expanded through financial market partnerships. The company’s “Hadron by Tether” platform has signed agreements with KraneShares and Bitfinex Securities to accelerate the adoption of tokenized securities.
The company also deepened its presence in public sector digital infrastructure through collaboration with Da Nang City, Vietnam.
These moves come as Tether’s reserves increase. The firm reports more than $135 billion in exposure to U.S. Treasuries and is expected to make record profits this year, bringing unusually large liquidity to private market trading.
Its financial muscle appears to be funding forays into AI, robotics, and digital governance technologies.
But questions still remain. Neither Tether nor Neura have confirmed the final size or structure of the investment.
Analysts say mass production of humanoid robots involves technological and supply chain risks, and the expected valuation depends on whether Neura scales up production quickly.
Still, Tether’s direction is clear. The company is moving from a stablecoin-only business to a broader technology investor, with its future tied to sectors far beyond digital assets.
