Wu Shuo learned that Tether announced that it has appointed an additional independent director to the board of directors of Bitcoin treasury company Twenty One Capital (XXI) to fill the vacancy on the audit committee following recent board changes. The XXI board of directors has determined that this candidate will meet the independence standards of Rule 10A-3 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act and Section 303A.02 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. Tether stated that the vacancy arose after Tether acquired SoftBank Group's stake in XXI on May 20, leading to the termination of the relevant governance agreement and the SoftBank Group representative's departure from the XXI board. It is reported that XXI currently holds over 43,500 BTC.
