Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino recently revealed the company's major asset allocation plan for 2025. During the New Year's Eve period, Tether purchased a total of 8,888 Bitcoins, directly pushing its publicly disclosed Bitcoin holdings to over 96,000 coins. More interestingly, Tether has established a long-term Bitcoin accumulation plan—15% of quarterly profits will be regularly invested in the Bitcoin market.

In addition to its dedication to Bitcoin, Tether has also been active in the precious metals sector. In the third quarter of 2025, the company acquired 26 tons of gold, increasing its total holdings to 116 tons. This figure is enough to place Tether among the top 30 gold holders worldwide.

It is worth noting that some of Tether's Bitcoin assets have been invested in the joint venture Twenty One Capital. As of January 1, 2026, this joint venture's Bitcoin reserve reached 43,514 coins. Tether's main Bitcoin address ranks fifth globally and second among private enterprise treasuries. These series of actions indicate that this stablecoin leader is moving towards asset management.

Tether is seriously stacking coins, directly launching 96,000 Bitcoins, pouring in 15% quarterly profit. This guy really isn't afraid of a dip. --- 116 tons of gold? Top 30 globally? Stablecoin companies are starting to deal with physical assets. Interesting. --- Wait, 43,514 Bitcoins in Twenty One Capital. Tether is building its own asset empire. --- Buying 15% profit Bitcoin every quarter at this pace... Feels like preparing for a big event. --- The second-ranked private enterprise Bitcoin reserve sounds pretty intimidating. Centralized stablecoins have become the biggest hoarding players—ironic. --- Buying 8,888 Bitcoins in one go on New Year's Eve. This number choice is a bit clever haha. --- Tether is no longer just printing coins; it's shifting towards asset allocation. Are they aiming to become the Morgan Stanley of the crypto world?

Tether is really all in, with 96,000 Bitcoins directly taking off. Is this move aiming to match the central bank's rhythm?

Tether's recent moves are really playing a big chess game... --- 96,000 BTC, that number is a bit terrifying... --- Using 15% of quarterly profits to buy BTC shows that Paolo truly believes in it --- 116 tons of gold? This looks like they're building a private central bank --- The second-largest private BTC reserve can be bragged about for a year --- Buying 8,888 Bitcoins for the New Year, the number is quite deliberate... --- The leading stablecoin shifting towards asset management, it seems USDT is about to become something else --- Combining precious metals and Bitcoin on both fronts, this strategic layout is quite imaginative --- While others are hoarding gold and coins, we're still arguing over which chain is faster --- Tether is really building a parallel financial system

Tether is really all in, holding 96,000 Bitcoins is a bit outrageous, no wonder stablecoins are so strong. --- Buying BTC with 15% profit every quarter? Is this rhythm aiming to wipe out the shorts? --- Gold is also accumulated, Bitcoin is also accumulated, Paolo is building an ark. --- Wait, 43,514 Bitcoins in a secondary fund? What are they laundering? --- The fifth largest Bitcoin address in the world is an enterprise, which is quite impressive, but if stablecoins are operated like this, who still trusts them? --- The number 8888... is a bit particular, but they are really investing money. --- I'm suspicious now, does Tether really have that much money?

Tether is really playing for keeps, holding onto 96,000 BTC and continuing to accumulate. 15% of quarterly profits are invested in Bitcoin... Have they turned the stablecoin company into an asset management firm?

Tether is trying to become an asset management company. It seems that stablecoins can no longer contain their ambitions. 96,000 Bitcoins, my goodness... how rich must they be? Gold and Bitcoin together—are they really hedging something? Quarterly profits of 15% pouring into Bitcoin—this pace is a bit intense. Aren't they afraid of a crash? The fifth-largest Bitcoin address... this influence is truly significant.
