Tether becomes a top 5 buyer of US Treasuries with $122B in T-bills backing its stablecoin reserves.

Tether, the issuer of the world's largest stablecoin USDT, now holds over $122 billion in US Treasury bills, making it one of the top buyers of American government debt. With USDT's market cap around $185 billion, Tether allocates about 83% of its reserves to T-bills, driving significant demand for these securities. In 2024 and 2025, Tether ranked seventh among foreign buyers of US debt and aims to enter the top 10 purchasers in 2026. This growing Treasury exposure supports Tether's profits and reflects a broader trend where stablecoin issuers could become major structural buyers of US government debt, potentially absorbing up to $1 trillion in Treasuries as regulations formalize reserve requirements.
