Tether has hired the chief economist from blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis, Philip Gradwell, to take up a similar position at the stablecoin giant, where he will be responsible for quantifying the Tether economy to regulators, the company said on Monday.

Gradwell spent over six years as chief economist at Chainanalysis, and will take up the role of head of economics at Tether.

Tether, which mimics the U.S. dollar with blockchain-based token USDT, is far and away the largest stablecoin in circulation, with over $112 billion market capitalization.

“My goal at Tether is to shift this conversation towards understanding how digital assets are used in the real economy, and how USDT is supporting dollar hegemony,” Gradwell said in a statement.
