Tether’s Strategic BTC Purchases

Tether has made a habit of acquiring Bitcoin every quarter, a move driven by its May 2023 announcement that it would allocate 15% of its quarterly profits to Bitcoin purchases. As a result, the firm has steadily increased its holdings, positioning itself as one of the largest institutional Bitcoin holders in the world. With 92,647 BTC now in its reserves, Tether’s total Bitcoin holdings are valued at $7.64 billion, securing its spot as the sixth-largest Bitcoin wallet globally.

This steady accumulation by Tether is part of a larger trend of institutional investors turning to Bitcoin as a store of value. While many other entities shy away during periods of price decline, Tether has capitalized on the market downturns, buying when prices are low. In fact, during Q1 2025, when Bitcoin experienced a 12% price drop, Tether remained undeterred in its strategy, acquiring more Bitcoin.

Bitcoin’s Market Volatility and Tether’s Resilience

Interestingly, Tether’s latest Bitcoin purchase came during one of the worst-performing Q1s in recent years for Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency saw a sharp 12% price decline, marking its worst Q1 performance in seven years. 

Despite this downturn, Tether’s actions indicate confidence in the long-term value of Bitcoin. Its large-scale purchases, even in a volatile market, suggest a belief in Bitcoin’s potential for future growth and stability.

Moreover, Tether’s success in accumulating Bitcoin at these lower price points also underscores the resilience of its strategy. By continuing to add to its reserves during periods of price contraction, the firm positions itself to benefit from future price increases, once the market recovers.

USDT Minting Spree and Stablecoin Competition

Tether’s Bitcoin purchases come amid its continued minting of USDT stablecoins. Recently, the company minted $1 billion in USDT on TronDAO, bringing its total holdings on the platform to over $8 billion.

In the past year alone, Tether has issued $40 billion in USDT, cementing its dominance in the stablecoin market. However, the stablecoin industry has grown increasingly competitive, with rivals like Ripple’s RLUSD and Circle’s USDC expanding their presence.

In response, Tether continues to adapt and expand its footprint, despite the tightening regulatory environment. Notably, Tether faces new challenges with the launch of MiCA regulations in Europe, prompting its exit from the region. Additionally, Circle, the issuer of USDC, is preparing for an IPO, which could further intensify competition in the stablecoin market.
