Tether reports a $4.9B Q2 profit, driven by Bitcoin, gold, and U.S. Treasuries, signaling strong growth and global stablecoin demand.
Tether has reported a strong financial performance for the second quarter of 2025, posting a net profit of approximately $4.9 billion. This brings its total profit for the first half of the year to $5.7 billion. The increase was occasioned by both recurring earnings and gains on the mark-to-market investments in Bitcoin and gold.

As indicated in the Q2 attestation report of the company, the profit of the company was comprised of 3.1 billion in recurring income and 2.6 billion in profit generated by the increase in the market value of Bitcoin and gold. This financial performance emphasizes the increasing role that Tether plays in the digital asset world and the diversification of its investment portfolio.
The second quarter was a time of growth, too. Tether issued over USD₿13.4 billion in stablecoins during the quarter, pushing the total supply above USD₿157 billion. This marks a $20 billion increase since the beginning of the year. The rise shows strong and sustained global demand for stable digital currencies. In particular, emerging markets continue to drive this trend.
Tether also experienced massive growth in exposure to U.S. Treasuries. As of the end of June 2025, the company had more than 127 billion dollars of U.S. government debt on its books, both directly and indirectly, 105.5 billion and 21.3 billion dollars, respectively. This value is almost 8 billion more compared to that of the previous quarter. This is in addition to an increase as the American government tries to sustain the dominance of the dollar through acts like the GENIUS Act, which tries to stimulate the development of digital dollars.

Meanwhile, Tether had a stable shareholder capital in the amount of 5.47 billion. This financial buffer gives the company flexibility and reinforces its solvency, and helps against any variations in the market. It also enables the company to have the long-term capability to exist and operate safely and independently in changing market cycles.
In addition to short-term profits, Tether remains committed to reinvestment in its long-term vision. The company has invested a huge amount of its profits in its strategic initiatives like XXI Capital and the creation of the Rumble Wallet. These projects are an indicator of increased attention to digital innovation, free speech technology and decentralized finance.
Tether also keeps investing in new sectors such as artificial intelligence, renewable energy, and communication infrastructure. It is important to note, however, that this type of proprietary investment does not form part of the reserves that support its digital tokens. As of June 30, 2025, the company reported total assets of approximately $162.6 billion. It recorded total liabilities at around $157.1 billion.
Commenting on the report, the CEO of Tether, Paolo Ardoino, said that increased trust in the company worldwide has contributed to this growth. Tether is also a major player in digital finance with over $127 billion invested in U.S. Treasuries and an increasing share in the market of Bitcoin and gold.
The Q2 2025 results of Tether demonstrate the company as a stable connection between the digital and traditional financial worlds. With the development of new regulatory models, Tether also seems to be in a good place in terms of facilitating a global economy that relies more and more on stable and dollar-pegged digital assets.
