Tether increases Bitcoin and gold allocations to strengthen reserves and diversify beyond traditional assets.
CEO Paolo Ardoino reaffirms Bitcoin and gold as long-term hedges against inflation and uncertainty.
Gold-backed XAUt exceeds 7.66 tons as Tether expands exposure to mining, refining, and commodity investments.
Tether continues to strengthen its financial base through strategic allocations in Bitcoin and gold. The company has positioned both assets as long-term components of its reserves to enhance stability and hedge against economic uncertainty. This approach supports Tether’s broader plan to diversify its holdings beyond traditional financial instruments.
Tether Expands Bitcoin and Gold Holdings for Long-Term Stability
Tether said in May 2023 that it would allocate up to 15% of its net realized operating profits to purchase Bitcoin. The company stated that these acquisitions aim to reinforce its balance sheet and serve as a long-term investment, rather than to back the USDT stablecoin directly.
Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino recently wrote on X that “Bitcoin and gold will outlast any other currency,” reaffirming his consistent view on their long-term relevance. He previously grouped Bitcoin, gold, and land as hedges against inflation and uncertainty, emphasizing their ability to maintain value during volatile market conditions.
Tether has dismissed rumors that it sold Bitcoin to increase its exposure to gold. Instead, it continues to expand both assets in parallel. Most of the company’s reserves remain in liquid instruments such as U.S. Treasurys, ensuring strong liquidity while adding layers of protection through hard assets.
Gold’s Expanding Role in Tether’s Reserve Strategy
Gold has become an increasingly central asset in Tether’s reserve management. The company’s tokenized gold, XAUt, is backed by more than 7.66 tons of physical gold as of June 2025. This structure allows users to access gold digitally while maintaining full metal backing.
Tether is also exploring broader participation in the gold industry, including mining, refining, and royalty investments. This initiative supports its diversification strategy and provides additional exposure to physical commodities within its reserve framework.
The company’s dual focus on Bitcoin and gold reflects a balance between digital and traditional stores of value. The next reserve attestation, expected in the coming weeks, is anticipated to show updated allocations. As both assets maintain upward momentum in 2025, Tether’s approach positions it for continued reserve resilience and stability.

Bernstein: The Bitcoin market has already priced in the risk from quantum computing, and developers have 3 to 5 years to push forward with a post-quantum upgrade
Bernstein’s research report states that the Bitcoin pullback reflects market concerns about the risks of quantum computing, and argues that the quantum threat is manageable and does not constitute a systemic risk. Current technological progress provides a cushion for Bitcoin, giving developers 3 to 5 years to push forward a post-quantum upgrade. Institutional investors will help drive consensus formation, but user migration remains the main challenge.

The New York Times reignites the “Satoshi identity mystery”; after Adam Back was targeted, he quickly clarified
Author: Nancy, PANews
Satoshi Nakamoto’s true identity remains the mystery that has continued in the crypto world for 17 years. Speculation about this pseudonym has never stopped—from cryptographers to corporate founders, various candidates have been brought up in turn, but there has always been a lack of evidence strong enough to settle the matter once and for all.
Recently, The New York Times published a long-form investigation of more than 10,000 words. Based on multiple comparisons drawn from language style, technical pathways, and historical context, it ranked Blockstream CEO Adam Back as the strongest candidate for Satoshi Nakamoto. However, this claim was quickly and clearly denied by Back himself, and the relevant arguments were widely questioned across the industry as being hard to support.
