Tether’s Yuan Stablecoin: Dead as a Dodo, But Less Extinct

by

Key Takeaways (Or, as Nanny Ogg would say, ‘The Gist of It’)

  • Tether’s CNH₮ is going the way of the dodo, effective immediately. No more minting, no more mischief.
  • Holders have until February 2027 to redeem their tokens. That’s plenty of time to panic.
  • Apparently, no one wanted it. Who knew? Not Tether, clearly.
  • This follows the EUR₮’s swan song. Tether’s stablecoin family is shrinking faster than a wizard’s hat in a rainstorm.

On February 20, 2026, Tether decided it had had enough of this particular stablecoin shenanigan and pulled the plug. The wind-down process will be as slow as a troll crossing the Ankh, but at least it’s happening.

Minting Halted Faster Than a Witch’s Curse

Tether has stopped minting CNH₮ tokens quicker than a wizard can say “Pratchettium.” The circulating supply is now as fixed as Granny Weatherwax’s opinion on modern magic.

Existing holders aren’t being dragged to the redemption gallows just yet, but Tether is nudging them harder than a dwarf with a grudge. Redeem your tokens, they say. Or else… what? They’ll send a strongly worded memo?

2027: The Year of the Stablecoin Redemption (Or Not)

Investors have until February 2027 to get their act together. That’s a whole year to figure out what to do with their soon-to-be-worthless tokens. Tether promises a reminder, because apparently, crypto enthusiasts need one.

“Don’t forget to redeem your CNH₮,” they’ll say. “It’s not like we’re turning it into pumpkin spice lattes.”

Why Tether Pulled the Plug (Spoiler: It’s the Money)

Tether claims this was a “strategic review,” but let’s call a spade a garden implement. CNH₮ was as popular as a tax audit at a dwarf mine. The demand was so low, even Rincewind would have turned it down.

Now, Tether’s focusing on its USD₮ and other shiny new toys like USA₮. Because, you know, those are actually useful. Or at least, more useful than a stablecoin pegged to a currency that even the Ankh-Morporkian dollar looks at and says, “Oof.”

Simplifying their portfolio, they say. Streamlining infrastructure, they claim. Sounds like they’re just tidying up before the auditors arrive with pitchforks and spreadsheets.

The Great Stablecoin Cleanup Continues

This isn’t Tether’s first rodeo. Remember EUR₮? Neither does anyone else. It’s being liquidated faster than a failed business venture in Quirm. Redemption deadline: November 27, 2025. Mark your calendars, or don’t. It’s not like it matters.

All this points to Tether doing a bit of spring cleaning, or perhaps autumn pruning, to keep up with the ever-changing whims of regulators and the fickle crypto market. It’s like watching a wizard try to organize his spellbook-chaotic, but necessary.
