Tether said it has made a $150 million strategic investment in gold, citing a defensive move during a period of severe market dislocation, according to a statement published on its official website.
The investment expands Tether’s exposure to both physical and tokenized gold, positioning the asset as a hedge alongside its existing reserve framework. Tether said the allocation is aimed at preserving stability and liquidity as risk appetite across digital asset markets remains constrained. The move reflects a broader “flight to safety” dynamic as investors reassess counterparty and volatility risks.
Tether added that the investment is intended to improve global access to gold-backed products, bridging traditional safe-haven assets with blockchain-based distribution. While the company did not disclose timing details or allocation mechanics beyond the headline amount, it framed gold as a complementary reserve asset during periods of macro and crypto-specific stress.
