Tether, the issuer of the world's largest stablecoin, reported that its net profits exceeded $10 billion for the year as of the third quarter of 2025. The company's flagship token, USDT, reached a market cap of $174 billion in this same period. Tether also noted a significant increase in circulating USDT, which grew by $17 billion, alongside a $135 billion exposure to U.S. Treasuries, making it the 17th largest holder of U.S. debt. Additionally, the company revealed it holds $12.9 billion in gold and $9.9 billion in bitcoin. Tether announced a share buyback program targeting institutional investors and applied for an investment fund license in El Salvador. This comes as Tether continues to strengthen its position in the rapidly growing stablecoin market, planning to launch a new stablecoin, USAT, aimed at the U.S. market. The firm has also confirmed its investment in the bankrupt Celsius using its own capital rather than reserves, highlighting its operational resilience in the crypto market.
