Tether Now Owns $125,000,000,000 in US Treasuries, Surpassing Germany, UAE, Spain and Australia: CEO Paolo Ardoino

The CEO of Tether Holdings, Paolo Ardoino, is highlighting that the USDT stablecoin is largely backed by an asset widely regarded as safe and highly liquid. In a new CNBC interview, Ardoino says if Tether were a country, the USDT issuer would rank among the top 20 largest foreign holders of US Treasuries. “We have $152 billion now in issued tokens.

Well, Tether is not a nation, but if we were a nation, we would be the 18th-largest nation holding US Treasuries. We have more Treasuries than Germany, UAE [United Arab Emirates], Spain, Australia and we are growing. Our approach is to keep growing our US Treasuries base.” As of March, Germany and the UAE held $111.4 billion and $104.4 billion in US Treasuries, respectively, according to US Treasury data. The countries that hold more US Treasuries than Tether as of March are Japan, China, the United Kingdom, Cayman Islands, Canada, Luxembourg, Belgium, France, Ireland, Switzerland, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Brazil, Norway, Saudi Arabia and South Korea.

Put that in context, the number is probably about $300 billion right now…” Follow us on X , Facebook and Telegram Don't Miss a Beat – Subscribe to get email alerts delivered directly to your inbox Check Price Action Surf The Daily Hodl Mix Disclaimer: Opinions expressed at The Daily Hodl are not investment advice.
