- Tether’s net profit surpasses $10B, projected to hit $15B by year-end.
- US Treasury holdings reach $135B, diversifying reserves and liquidity.
- USDT supply grows past $183B, supporting a 500M-strong global user base.
Tether International has reported remarkable Q3 2025 results, confirming net profits exceeding $10 billion for the year so far. According to its latest attestation prepared by BDO, a global accounting firm, the company is on track to reach $15 billion in net profit by the end of 2025. This milestone reinforces Tether’s position as one of the most financially resilient entities in the fintech and stablecoin space.
US Treasury Holdings Hit Record Levels
Tether’s total exposure to US Treasuries surged to $135 billion by September 30, making it the 17th-largest holder of US government debt globally, surpassing countries like South Korea. This record allocation highlights Tether’s focus on liquidity and diversification, a strategy strengthened by the recent approval of the GENIUS Act in the US.
During Q3, Tether issued over $17 billion in new USDT, pushing the circulating supply to $174 billion. By October, the total USDT supply surpassed $183 billion, while the stablecoin market cap exceeded $300 billion. Tether’s user base now exceeds 500 million, reflecting strong global demand for reliable digital assets amid macroeconomic volatility.
Diversified Reserves Strengthen Stability
Tether’s reserve portfolio includes $12.9 billion in gold and $9.9 billion in Bitcoin, representing roughly 13% of total reserves. Proprietary investments in AI, energy, and communications remain separate from the USDT backing, ensuring operational growth does not compromise token stability.

Legal Settlements and Future Plans
In October, Tether settled Celsius-related litigation for $299.5 million using investment capital, leaving token backing unaffected.

Strategic hires, including a former Trump crypto official as advisor, signal the company’s renewed focus on US operations and regulatory alignment.
Tether’s Q3 2025 results demonstrate financial strength, strategic diversification, and growing trust in its stablecoin ecosystem. With record profits, expanding reserves, and a growing user base, Tether continues to solidify its leadership in global digital finance.
