TechFlow news, November 30 — Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino responded to "FUD about Tether," stating: According to the latest announcement (Q3 2025), Tether will continue maintaining a multi-billion dollar buffer of excess reserves, with total group equity nearing $30 billion.
As of the end of Q3 2025, Tether holds approximately $7 billion in excess equity (on top of about $184.5 billion in stablecoin reserves) and around $23 billion in retained earnings as part of Tether Group equity.
The Tether Group's total assets are approximately $215 billion, with stablecoin liabilities of about $184.5 billion. S&P made the same mistake in its analysis: failing to account for additional group equity and ignoring the fact that U.S. Treasury yields alone generate a base monthly profit of approximately $500 million.
