Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino has confirmed that the company plans to launch an open-source Bitcoin Mining OS (MOS) by the end of the year. The OS will be adapted for a variety of scales, from small home installations to large industrial mining farms with hundreds of thousands of devices.

Ardoino said the new version of the OS is currently undergoing testing. MOS is said to feature a modular, peer-to-peer IoT architecture that supports multiple configurations, including air and immersion cooling, as well as a variety of electrical and cooling systems.
Tether aims to reduce its reliance on external providers as MOS will give miners the ability to manage their own infrastructure, eliminating the need for proprietary software and reducing vendor lock-in.
With the public launch of its mining OS, Tether hopes to lower the barrier to entry for new and small miners, which should encourage greater participation and strengthen the decentralization of Bitcoin’s computing power. Additionally, a more evenly distributed miner base makes Bitcoin more resilient and less susceptible to centralization risks.
MOS is expected to be integrated with Tether’s decentralized AI platform QVAC, allowing for real-time performance reporting and optimization using machine learning. Ardoino recently stated that Tether could become the world’s largest Bitcoin miner by the end of 2025, surpassing publicly traded mining companies.
As of September 1, 2025, Tether will stop buying back USDT and freeze balances on Algorand, EOS, Omni, Kusama, and Bitcoin Cash SLP. These networks are considered legacy, their usage is declining, and their liquidity is low.
The platform will focus on networks with high developer activity and scalability, primarily Ethereum, Tron, and some second-layer networks.
A few months ago, Tether signed a partnership with mining pool Ocean to distribute computing power, clearly aimed at decentralizing block production. Tether also recently acquired a 70% stake in South American agricultural company Adecoagro for about $600 million. The deal aims to integrate USDT into commodity trading, streamline cross-border settlements, and possibly use renewable energy to mine Bitcoin.
Speaking of USDT, it remains the world’s leading stablecoin, accounting for over 60% of the market, with a market cap exceeding $160 billion and daily trading volume that often exceeds $150 billion.
