Tether added roughly $70 million worth of Bitcoin to its reserve wallet on Wednesday.

That address was previously confirmed by CEO Paolo Ardoino as the destination for the company's Bitcoin purchases.
The wallet now holds 97,141 Bitcoin. At current prices, that position is worth approximately $7.16 billion. According to Bitcointreasuries(dot)net, Tether would rank as the second-largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally if it were publicly listed, sitting behind Strategy.
Tether began buying Bitcoin systematically in 2023. That year, the company introduced a policy to allocate up to 15% of its realized operating profits into Bitcoin. The purchases are funded through earnings from its stablecoin business, not through external capital raises.
USDT is the largest stablecoin by market capitalization, currently sitting at around $185 billion. Tether reported more than $10 billion in net profit for 2025. That figure was driven by growth in USDT issuance and income from U.S. Treasury holdings.
Tether's reserve base is dominated by cash-equivalent assets. The company holds up to $141 billion in exposure to U.S. government debt. It also reported $6.3 billion in excess reserves against $186.5 billion in total liabilities.
Gold makes up another significant portion of Tether's balance sheet. The company's most recent report showed $17.4 billion in gold holdings. That positions gold alongside Bitcoin as one of the firm's primary alternative asset classes.
