Cantor Fitzgerald, already a long-time partner handling Tether\u2019s U.S. Treasury assets, is reportedly leading the advisory role in the deal.<\/p>\n<p>Tether doesn\u2019t enjoy the same cultural visibility as companies like OpenAI, but its financials are drawing attention. In the second quarter of 2025, the firm reported $4.9 billion in profit, bringing its total profit for the year to $5.7 billion. For a company with a lean workforce, those numbers put it in rare territory for profitability per employee.<\/p>\n<h2>Comparisons With OpenAI<\/h2>\n<p>The rumored valuation mirrors conversations around OpenAI, which The New York Times previously reported was also eyeing a $500 billion valuation. While the two companies operate in completely different sectors, both are shaping their industries \u2014 Tether as the largest issuer of stablecoins, and OpenAI as the driving force behind consumer AI adoption.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong> Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only.
