Tether has reported a remarkable $2.5 billion in profits for the third quarter of 2024, bringing its total consolidated profit for the year to $7.7 billion. This growth is attributed to a 30% increase in the circulation of its stablecoin, USDT, which now totals $120 billion. The company's reserves include over $105 billion, primarily in US Treasury bills, which have seen a significant increase in value since July. Tether's assets now total $134.4 billion against liabilities of approximately $119 billion. Notably, Tether has also made substantial profits from its gold holdings, gaining about $1.1 billion in unrealized profits in Q3.
