Tether Goes Full Bull: Drops $459M on Bitcoin for New Treasury Venture
Tether—the stablecoin giant that somehow always has more cash than your local bank—just made its biggest Bitcoin bet yet. The company scooped up half a billion dollars’ worth of BTC to seed a new treasury subsidiary. Because what’s a stablecoin issuer without a side hustle in volatile assets?
From Stablecoins to Stacking Sats
The move signals Tether’s aggressive pivot toward Bitcoin as a reserve asset, despite regulators’ allergic reactions to crypto treasuries. No slow DCA here—just a $459 million lump-sum buy that would make even MicroStrategy blink.
The Irony Playbook
Nothing says ‘stable value’ like parking company funds in an asset that swings 10% before lunch. But with Tether’s war chest reportedly flush from those sweet, sweet stablecoin printing fees, why not double down on crypto’s original gangster asset?
One thing’s certain: when the company backing the ‘digital dollar’ starts hoarding Bitcoin like a degenerate, it’s either genius or the greatest financial plot twist since Lehman Brothers. Place your bets.
