Stablecoin issuer Tether Holdings Limited released its Consolidated Reserve Report (CRR) for Q3 2023. It noted that the company marked significant achievements in managing cash reserves to back its flagship stablecoin Tether USD, popularly known as USDT. In addition, it successfully managed to minimize secured loans by a notable number.&nbsp;
According to an October 31, 2023, released blog post, Tether noted that BDO, one of the top five global independent accounting firms, recognized it in its recently published assurance opinion. This attestment exercise from the firm on Tether found the results the same as the company’s own CRR for the quarter that ended in September 2023.&nbsp;
As per the post, the percentage of cash and cash equivalents in stablecoin reserves reached a whopping 85.7%. This achievement acts as a milestone for the company as it is the highest recorded percentage of reserves ever for cash.
The overall reserve for <a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2023/10/16/paolo-ardoino-from-a-freelance-consultant-to-the-ceo-of-tether/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">USDT </a>stablecoin remained equal to or even higher than the number of digital assets in circulation. Until September 2023, there were $83.2 Billion in USDT reserves distributed among cash and other investments such as gold and Bitcoin (BTC).&nbsp;
Interestingly, the cash and cash equivalent metric had majority holdings of United States Treasury Bills, or US T-bills. The company holdings in these T-bills account for about $72.6 Billion.&nbsp;
A Treasury bill (T-Bill) is a short-term U.S. government debt obligation backed by the Treasury Department with a maturity of one year or less.
Other than the bills, the company held Bitcoin worth $1.7 Billion and invested $3.1 Billion in gold. Additionally, $3.7 Billion worth of funds were allocated to other reserves.&nbsp;
