Tether just released its quarterly USDT attestation for Q2 2026. Tether had a great second quarter of 2026, with ~1.5B in net operating profit, despite highly volatile global markets. USDT user base continued to grow, reaching the new all-time-high of 650M+, with the widest surge across all emerging markets, fueled by the continued period of geopolitical uncertainty. Without a doubt, Tether continues to deliver financial inclusion in the developing world like no other company or organization ever has in the history of humanity; we're all incredibly proud of this achievement. Most of the financial industry today is so excited for overly-inflated AI stock valuations, like moths to a flame. But at Tether we keep dreaming of a stable Society that drives both financial and intelligence inclusion for the 4 billion people left behind. Highlights as of 30 June 2026: * ~1.5B in net operating profits for Q2 2026. * ~184.6B total issued USDT, end of Q2 2026. * ~4.1B excess reserves, on top of the 100% reserves in liquid assets that back all issued tokens, end of Q2 2026. These results show that Tether has the liquidity, discipline and scale to remain resilient across market cycles while continuing to serve hundreds of millions of users around the world. Thank you very much for the continued support ❤️(Paolo Ardoino 🤖)
