Gold at $5,250 All-Time High: Why Is Tether Buying 27 Tons of Gold?
Summary: Tether has become a major gold buyer, adding about 27 tons in late 2025 as gold surged past $5,200, signaling a shift toward gold as a neutral reserve asset amid geopolitical and currency risk. The purchases back both USDT reserves and Tether Gold (XAUT), making Tether one of the largest institutional players linking physical gold with blockchain-based finance and reinforcing gold’s structural bull trend in 2026.
