The issuer of stablecoin<\/a> USDT, Tether, as of September 30 held U.S. Treasury bills worth $72.6 billion. The securities accounted for 84% of assets ($86.38 billion), according to the company’s attestation report<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Together with cash, their share stood at 85.7%.<\/p>\n

Liabilities total $83.18 billion (including USDT $83.15 billion), implying excess reserves of $3.2 billion.<\/p>\n

“We have reached an all-time high share of cash and cash equivalents within reserves. This demonstrates our commitment to maintaining liquidity and stability in the ecosystem,”<\/em> \u2014 said Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The company holds Bitcoin valued at $1.66 billion, gold ($3.15 billion) and other assets ($3.7 billion).<\/p>\n

The report notes a $330 million reduction in extended secured loans.<\/p>\n

In September, The Wall Street Journal reported that the company restarted lending<\/a> in its own stablecoin, a year after assurances of discontinuation of such practice. <\/p>\n

Tether also disclosed investments in industry-related research totaling more than $809.5 million year-to-date (~$668.9 million in Q3). They are not part of USDT reserves. The category includes investments in sustainable energy, Bitcoin mining, P2P technologies and data storage.<\/p>\n

According to CoinGecko<\/a>, Tether’s market capitalization is $84.8 billion. The company accounts for 68.5% of the stablecoin market.<\/p>\n

In May, Ardoino said that high profitability<\/a> for the issuer would enable it to explore new business lines<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Subsequently, it emerged that Tether invested $1 billion<\/a> in a Bitcoin mining project in El Salvador. Later, the issuer allocated $420 million<\/a> to buy Nvidia chips in exchange for a 20% stake in the mining company Northern Data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
