Tether International Ltd. reported net profit of $4.9 billion for the second quarter of 2025. An audit conducted by BDO confirmed that the issuer's assets are sufficiently secured, which confirms the reliability of the company's financial position.
Tether issued new USDT stablecoins worth $13.4 billion between April and June, and since the beginning of this year, the issue volume has reached $20 billion. To date, the total number of USDT in circulation has exceeded 157 billion coins, which reflects the high popularity of this stablecoin among users.
Tether also became one of the largest holders of US government bonds, with a portfolio valued at $127 billion. The report notes that this success coincided with initiatives by US lawmakers aimed at strengthening the dollar’s global digital leadership through the GENIUS Act.
The company’s share capital is stable at approximately $5.47 billion, which serves as a significant safety cushion that helps the business resilience regardless of market fluctuations. These excess reserves allow Tether to effectively withstand economic shocks.
Most of the quarter’s profit was reinvested in long-term projects. These include investments in XXI Capital and Rumble, as well as support for areas related to artificial intelligence, renewable energy, and the development of digital communications. The total investment volume was about $4 billion.
The company's CEO, Paolo Ardoino, emphasized that while regulators are developing a regulatory framework for digital dollars, Tether demonstrates an example of how innovation in the stablecoin field can ensure transparency, sustainability, and global distribution. According to him, USDT helps billions of people around the world gain access to the stability of the American currency, and this task is becoming increasingly important.
The report also indicates that in the second quarter, almost 250,000 XAUT "gold" stablecoins, backed by 7.6 tons of precious metal, were in circulation, which adds an additional level of trust to the company's products.
Thus, Tether's results for the second quarter confirm its leadership in the stablecoin market and demonstrate an active strategy of investing in promising areas, maintaining stability and business growth in the changing global economy.
