Tether U.S Treasury Holdings Hit ATH as Stablecoin Race Heats Up
Tether, the dominant player in the stablecoin market, reported record-breaking U.S. Treasury holdings in its Q1 2025 attestation. The figures, audited by top-tier accounting firm BDO, underscore the issuer’s resilience amid broader financial turbulence.
The reserves breakdown reveals a strategic emphasis on low-risk assets, with Treasury securities comprising the lion’s share of backing for fiat-pegged tokens. This conservative approach contrasts with the volatility seen across cryptocurrency markets during the same period.
Market analysts interpret Tether’s growing Treasury portfolio as both a hedge against crypto market fluctuations and a bid to reassure institutional investors. The milestone comes as regulatory scrutiny intensifies across the stablecoin sector.
