Tether Tops $120B in U.S. Treasuries, Nets $1B Profit in Q1 2025
Tether International S.A. de C.V. (TI) has released its Q1 2025 attestation, audited by BDO, confirming a record-breaking quarter marked by financial strength and increased global adoption of USD₮.
Tether’s holdings in U.S. Treasuries, including indirect exposures, approached $120 billion, the highest in its history. This conservative reserve strategy helped the company report over $1 billion in operating profit, mainly from Treasury investments. Gold assets helped offset crypto market volatility.
The company now holds $5.6 billion in excess reserves, highlighting a robust liquidity position.
USD₮ Wallets Surge and Supply Expands
In Q1 2025, USD₮ supply grew by $7 billion, while 46 million new wallets were created — a 13% increase from the previous quarter. This surge underscores rising global trust in Tether’s stablecoin as a reliable, dollar-based asset.
Investments and Regulatory Expansion
Tether has invested over $2 billion in emerging sectors like AI, renewable energy, and decentralized communications through Tether Investments. These are not part of the USD₮ reserve.
Additionally, Q1 marked Tether’s first full quarter of regulatory oversight in El Salvador, where it is now a licensed stablecoin issuer — a major step in expanding its compliance footprint.
