Tether Aims for Top Five Foreign Holder Status in U.S. Treasuries by 2033
- As of June, Tether holds approximately $127 billion in U.S. Treasury securities.
- Tether is currently the 18th largest foreign holder of U.S. Treasuries and was the 7th largest buyer in the previous year.
- The company reported net additions of $33.1 billion in Treasury holdings for the last year, averaging about $2.8 billion per month.
- Japan leads as the largest foreign holder with approximately $1.15 trillion, while Belgium ranks fifth at around $428 billion.
- If Tether maintains its current growth rate, it could enter the top five by 2033, assuming steady demand for bills and stablecoin market expansion.
Tether’s significant accumulation of U.S. Treasuries positions it to potentially become a top foreign holder, reflecting its strategy to increase holdings amidst fluctuating market conditions and competition from other custodial centers.
With $127 billion currently held, Tether’s trajectory suggests a credible path to ranking among the top five foreign holders by the projected year of 2033. (Source)
