According to Ourcryptotalk, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes has raised concerns about Tether’s financial stability, citing increased exposure to volatile assets like gold and Bitcoin. Tether’s Q3 2025 attestation shows $4.8B in gold and $1.2B in BTC, with Hayes warning that a 30% drop in these assets could eliminate its $6.5B equity buffer and trigger redemption pressure. Akash Network CEO Greg Osuri echoed the concerns, urging users to reduce USDT exposure and questioning reserve transparency. Tether has not directly responded as of November 30, 2025.
