Based on Cryptofrontnews, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino responded to claims that USDT could face insolvency if Bitcoin or gold prices drop 40%. He cited Q3 2025 attestation data showing $215 billion in assets and $184.5 billion in stablecoin liabilities, with nearly $30 billion in equity acting as a buffer. Ardoino argued that critics, including Arthur Hayes, overlooked Tether Group's financial structure. S&P recently downgraded USDT to a 'vulnerable' level due to increased exposure to Bitcoin, gold, loans, and corporate bonds. Analyst Joseph Ayoub noted Tether's strong income and asset position.
