The "Eurodollar" market—U.S. dollars held in banks outside the United States—is being transformed by stablecoins like Tether, which are backed by U.S. Treasuries. Tether has gained 400 million users globally, particularly in emerging markets where people prefer the stability of a digital dollar over local currencies. Cantor Fitzgerald, led by Howard Lutnick, manages the Treasury holdings for Tether, effectively recycling global capital back into the U.S. financial system.
