Citing Coinrise, Tether, the company behind USDT, has become the world’s largest independent holder of gold, with 116 metric tons in reserves as of Q3 2025. The company’s gold holdings now rival those of national reserves in South Korea and Greece, and Tether added 26 tons in a single quarter, representing 2% of global quarterly demand. Analysts suggest Tether’s strategy could redefine stablecoin investments and influence the broader gold market. The company has also invested over $300 million in gold mining royalty and streaming firms, signaling a long-term, vertically integrated approach to gold.
