It's basically a money market account backing a stablecoin
Most of the tokens are on Ethereum and Tron, it's based outside the US in the British Virgin Islands and they pocket the interest on the bonds they invest in as profit.

There are $100B worth of Tethers in the world. Tether was originally founded as Realcoin in Santa Monica, but left the US soon after.
