Tether’s Q3 Attestation Reveals $3.2 Billion Excess Reserves Backing USDT

Showcasing a surplus of $3.2 billion in reserves supporting its stablecoin, including USDT, is Tether, one of the well-known stablecoin issuers, according to its Q3 attestation. As of September 30, the company’s assets in reserves exceeded its liabilities by $83.2 billion, as reported by the audit, which was approved by BDO Italy. This provides insight into the company’s financial performance.

The Asset Breakdown

Seventy-six percent of the $86.4 billion in assets are ascribed to investments in U.S. Treasuries, which include direct T-bill investments, repurchase agreements, and money market fund deposits. Tether also has $5.2 billion in secured loan holdings, which is $330 million less than it had the prior quarter. Even with this decrease, the business still has to meet its commitment to completely phase out loans by the end of 2023.

With a staggering $84 billion in market value, Tether’s USDT continues to be the most popular stablecoin. To further add to its strong position in the cryptocurrency industry, the corporation also releases a number of additional digital currencies that are linked to gold and fiat currencies.

Tether’s Q3 earnings show a sharp increase in profits, which the company attributes to the current increase in interest rates. The business releases quarterly returns on its assets, which are once again getting close to $1 billion. This increase in earnings highlights Tether’s tenacity and profitability in the face of governmental scrutiny and the changing cryptocurrency market.

With $3.2 billion in extra reserves to support its stablecoin services, Tether’s Q3 attestation continues to demonstrate its dedication to keeping strong reserves. Tether, the industry leader in stablecoin issuance, keeps proving its stability and flexibility in the financial arena, guaranteeing that its stablecoins are a reliable and popular digital asset in the cryptocurrency world.
