Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino: ‘Bitcoin and Gold Will Outlast Any Other Currency’

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said in a post on X on Sunday that "Bitcoin and Gold will outlast any other currency," a minimalist line that aligns with how the stablecoin issuer has positioned parts of its reserves over the past two years. On May 17, 2023, Tether said it would regularly allocate up to 15% of net realized operating profits to purchase bitcoin for reserves, adding BTC to surplus rather than using it to back circulating USDT one-for-one. The company framed the move as strengthening its balance sheet with a long-term store of value. BTC and gold as parallel pillars Gold sits alongside bitcoin in that mix. Tether issues tether gold (XAUt), a token backed by allocated bars, and said on July 24 that more than 7.66 tons of metal backed outstanding tokens as of June 30, 2025. Separately, as CoinDesk reported on Sept. 5, 2025, citing the Financial Times, Tether has held talks to invest across the gold value chain — from mining and refining to royalties — as part of a broader diversification push. Ardoino has grouped the assets rhetorically before. On Sept. 7, he referenced bitcoin, gold and land as hedges and later dismissed suggestions that Tether sold BTC to accumulate gold, saying the firm remained committed to growing its bitcoin position. Today's eight-word post is less a policy shift than a restatement — bitcoin as a strategic asset added with profits, and gold as a parallel pillar via tokenization and potential upstream investments — while most reserves remain in liquid instruments such as U.S. Treasurys per attestations. The next reserve report, expected late this month or early next month, will show whether allocations to BTC and gold have changed. As of Sunday, 8:10 p.m. UTC, the U.S. dollar index (DXY) was down 8.88% year to date, while bitcoin and gold — BTC-USD and XAU-USD — were up 22.79% and 52.91%, respectively, according to MarketWatch.
