(Reuters) - Tether, the creator of the world's largest stablecoin, is "engaging with a Big Four accounting firm" as it pushes for a long-awaited audit of its reserves, an effort CEO Paolo Ardoino said will be easier under U.S. President Donald Trump.

Tether has issued more than $140 billion worth of its dollar-pegged cryptocurrency and said for years that it will release an audit. Its token is designed to keep a constant value, something Tether says it does by holding dollar-denominated reserves for every token it creates.
