Tether made a significant move in Q4 2025, acquiring 8,888 BTC valued at approximately $779M. The stablecoin giant's cumulative Bitcoin holdings now stand at 96,370 BTC, representing a portfolio worth $8.46 billion. This strategic accumulation underscores Tether's approach to building a robust long-term reserve asset base. The consistent Bitcoin stacking pattern suggests confidence in BTC as a foundational crypto asset for reserve management—a trend increasingly adopted by major players seeking to strengthen their balance sheets amid market evolution.

Bro, USDT is hoarding Bitcoin? That move is really fierce
---
tether is like playing chess, almost 10,000 BTC with 996,370 coins
---
No... USDT is really pouring 7.9 billion into buying BTC, this signal is a bit different
---
I just want to know if this move is to support BTC or if it's genuine faith
---
Gazi, USDT is also starting to play the "Bitcoin reserve" game, is this the same tactic as those institutions
---
Just a quick message... are these 96,000 BTC trying to prove that USDT has backing?
---
Can't hold it anymore. This is what you call a "big player's game." We're just here watching the show

Tether is quietly accumulating Bitcoin again, and this approach is even more low-key... 960,000 BTC, who can withstand this?

Tether's recent move is really impressive, 96k BTC... Is this really a game? It feels like they've just converted all their cash into gold.
Using BTC as a reserve is indeed a clever idea. If stablecoin giants are doing this, do we small investors still have a chance?
Huh? Why not just say they're manipulating the market? Is the underlying intention really that simple?
With an 8.46 billion bag, Tether is serious about benchmarking against the US dollar.
