Huobi Global to add support for ERC20 Tether

• Huobi global has added the Etherum-based version of Tether on top of its traditional Bitcoin-based, Omni Protocol form.
• Tether had released an ERC20 version of their token because it is interoperable with the dApps and protocols hosted on the Ethereum blockchain.

 Paolo Ardoino, Chief Technology Officer of Tether, said:
