“USDt growth is accelerating, leading the market with a 100B delta with the second-largest stablecoin.

In the upcoming quarter Tether will focus on a new venture in the US, to build a best-in-class product suite (stablecoins plus more), designed for the specific, already highly efficient, market.”

According to the newly published attestation completed by the global accounting firm BDO, Tether made $4.9 billion in net profits during the second quarter of the year. This brings the total to $5.7 billion for the first six months of 2025.
