Cointelegraph reports that Tether has reportedly invested $20 million into Argentine neobank Ualá, according to Bloomberg.

The deal is part of Ualá’s $197 million equity funding round announced in March, led by Allianz X, in which Ualá disclosed Tether as a participant at the time but did not reveal the investment size.

Cointelegraph said it contacted Tether for confirmation but had not received a response by publication.

The report also notes that Tether has previously backed Latin America crypto initiatives, including a $20 million investment in Brazilian exchange Mercado Bitcoin announced earlier in July, and it led a $14 million Series A round for Argentine platform Belo in April.
