<p>According to Bloomberg, the El Salvador–based firm expects to earn about $15 billion in profit in 2025, up from $13 billion in 2024. This anticipated growth underscores the strength of <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/tethers-path-to-web3-monetary-leadership/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Tether’s business model and operational efficiency</a>, making it one of the most profitable companies in the world on a per-employee basis.</p>

<p>Tether’s profitability is driven largely by the widespread use of its flagship token, USDT, which now has <a href="https://defillama.com/stablecoin/tether" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">nearly $184 billion in circulation</a>. The token’s dominance has attracted investors and fueled global adoption of digital dollars, particularly in regions where access to traditional banking remains limited.</p>

<p>Recall that the company is reportedly seeking to raise <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-10-24/stablecoin-leader-tether-expects-profit-to-increase-to-15-billion-this-year" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$20 billion at a $500 billion valuation</a>, signaling its ambition to expand beyond its core stablecoin business. Although CEO Paolo Ardoino has not confirmed specific figures, he acknowledged ongoing discussions with “a select group of high-profile investors.”</p>
<p>Among these talks is a deal with Antalpha Platform Holding, a crypto-financing firm, to secure roughly $200 million in financing for a new public company focused on <a href="https://www.cointribune.com/en/tether-eyes-200m-for-tokenized-gold-crypto-treasury-with-antalpha/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">gold-backed digital tokens</a>.</p>

<p>Recently, Tether announced that USDT has surpassed 500 million users worldwide, marking a major milestone in its growth. Ardoino described the achievement as a pivotal step toward financial inclusion, noting that the stablecoin has become an essential tool for individuals and businesses in emerging markets.</p>
<p>He added that the company continues to attract strong interest from potential investors and is working to establish a valuation it considers highly attractive.</p>
<h2 id="h-digital-finance-enters-new-phase-with-rise-of-stablecoins">Digital Finance Enters New Phase with Rise of Stablecoins</h2>
<p>Following the U.S. Congress’s passage of the GENIUS Act—the country’s first legislation focused on stablecoins—the market has gained even greater momentum. The move represents growing recognition of blockchain-based payment systems as a way to reinforce the U.S. dollar’s global influence.</p>
<p>Tether co-founder Reeve Collins sees this as part of a larger shift that could <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/tether-2025-profit-forecast-stablecoin-growth" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reshape the global monetary system</a>. He noted that in the future, most traditional currencies are likely to exist in tokenized form, operating as stablecoins within digital payment networks.</p>
