Kava, a blockchain that combines the power of Ethereum and Cosmos, has launched the Kava 14 upgrade which allows for seamless conversion of native Cosmos assets to and from Ethereum's ERC20 token standard. Tether has chosen Kava as the gateway for issuing native USDt on Cosmos, and with the launch of Kava 14, USDt can now be minted and easily converted on Cosmos to USDt on other layer one networks.

Kava has gained momentum with Kucoin supporting its Cosmos and EVM networks, Curve Finance launching a USDt liquidity pool, and Stargate set to launch on Kava. The Kava 14 upgrade provides a safer and more reliable method for converting assets to and from the Cosmos ecosystem.
