Transaction Details

The transfer occurred through two distinct transactions. The primary movement consisted of 7,628.9 BTC, followed by a smaller transfer of 775.6 BTC. These additions occurred as Bitcoin’s price approached $92,500, highlighting the strategic timing of the reserve increase.

Reserve Management Strategy

The latest acquisition brings Tether’s total Bitcoin holdings to 83,759 BTC, valued at approximately $7.75 billion. This substantial reserve position reinforces Tether’s strategy of maintaining diverse asset backing for its USDT stablecoin, which requires maintaining a 1:1 dollar peg through various assets including:

  • Traditional cash reserves
  • Commercial paper
  • Cryptocurrency holdings
  • Other financial instruments

These strategic Bitcoin purchases align with Tether’s broader asset management approach, as the company continues to expand its cryptocurrency holdings while maintaining regulatory compliance and reserve transparency.
