According to Bloomberg, global commodities trader Trafigura is in talks with Tether about a pilot project to enable USDT payments at gas stations operated by its fuel distribution subsidiary, Puma Energy, in El Salvador. Sources say the discussions are still in the early stages and require regulatory approval. Under the proposed plan, consumers could use USDT to pay for fuel and convenience store items, with an intermediary converting the payments into USD for settlement with Puma. The report notes that this marks the first known collaboration between Tether and a major commodities trader to explore real-world stablecoin payment scenarios. In recent years, Tether has been expanding its presence in the commodities sector, including offering trade loans, financing crude oil transactions, and investing in gold and mining assets. https://(wublock123.com)/news/trafigura-tether-usdt-payments-salvador-gas-stations-61279
