Tether is sued over allegations it froze $42.4 million in USDT before authorities obtained a warrant, spot XRP ETFs extend their inflow streak, and the SEC explores round-the-clock trading for Wall Street. @jennsanasie has what you need to know. Thank you to @Grayscale for being a sponsor of the CoinDesk Media Network.

Tether’s USDT market cap on Tron increased by $1.1B over the past 30 days That is more than eight times the $130.3M added on Aptos, the second-fastest-growing chain Recent growth continues to reinforce Tron’s position as the largest distribution network for USDT

Tether's CEO shrugged off critics after the KPMG audit Paolo Ardoino told @TheBlockCo he does not care about the reaction, days after KPMG US signed off on @Tether's first full financial statement audit and counted its gold bars.

TETHER COMPLETES FIRST FULL FINANCIAL AUDIT Tether says KPMG U.S. has completed a full independent audit of its 2025 financial statements, issuing an unqualified, or “clean,” audit opinion. The audit went far beyond Tether’s previous quarterly reserve attestations, examining its full balance sheet, transactions, systems, counterparties, valuations, cash flows and underlying documentation. KPMG also physically counted and inspected every individual gold bar held by Tether. The audited statements show Tether’s reserves exceeded its liabilities by $6.814 billion at the end of 2025. Tether calls it the largest inaugural financial audit ever conducted and the fulfillment of one of the company’s longest-standing commitments.
