Tether recently added 26 tons of gold in Q3 alone, bringing its holdings to 116 tons—surpassing the reserves of several central banks, including Turkey, Kazakhstan, and Brazil. “The danger is if any one of these other assets drops to… zero… they’re not covering one to one,” warns Clive Thompson, retired Managing Director of Union Bancaire Privée. In this episode, Daniela Combone sits down with Thompson to dissect Tether’s $14 billion gold hoard, explore why the stablecoin giant continues snapping up bullion while its Treasury holdings lag behind its liabilities, and discuss whether this is a savvy hedge or a signal of deeper cracks in the financial system.

blow ya doze.. snotty, or tale 3gms C a day
Smart company. Why? because bitcoin has no intrinsic value. The US economy will collapse it is certain. Bitcoin in this depression environment is very vulnerable to a run on bitcoin because investors will be terrified. But if the company has a significant tier 1 asset like gold this provides real stability and confidence. Stable coins are anything but when treasury binds fail.
Teather should start a silver stable coin and a copper stable coin as well as palladium and platinum and rhodium stable coin if they do this and people invest in crypto and metals go up in price teather will be probably richer then 5 shitlon musk put together
Me like tether they should buy a gold mine
Wait until they get into silver
Clive is amazing. Cant wait until his son grows up to carry on thectorch in shows like ITM
Perhaps Tether is the proxy buyer of the US Government? They are not buying that to create a gold-backed crypto, are they? Perhaps Tether has an agreement with the government to gain favor in one way or the other once cryto and cbdc's are fully integrated in the financial system?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. What will be the strategy or exit plan, knowing that JP Morgan controls both sides of the trade? They have built a physical position and are maintaining a short position. They can control the market through regulatory interventions. Whether silver goes up or down, they will profit. And what would be the signs of each phase?
Thanks
I love you ❤❤❤❤cute anchor😂😂😂😂
Clive Thompson oozes financial wisdom and common cent$.
People have told me that there is three times more gold paid for than actually exists so people are trading in scotch gold ? ….. I would absolutely avoid trading any currency, or if you’re buying gold have it in front of you
Are they buying physical or paper? In the latter case it can go to 0
❤❤❤
Clive is the voice of common sense and very British is a bonus 😂. N.B. Italy are broke already if it was not for the EU lending them money at 0% interest they would have defaulted years ago..Italy’s gold belongs to the EU..
Tether playing long-term while others gamble
This makes holding USDT way less risky
When central banks hoard gold, it’s because they know fiat can fail. Great call by Tether to load up now, makes USDT more stable than just another digital dollar.
Gold over hype, Tether gets it
Seeing a stablecoin issuer holding 100 + tons of gold puts them in a whole different league. This is how you build long‑term trust, not just hype.
Tether buying gold like central banks makes me feel a lot safer about holding USDT, real physical backing beats paper promises any day.
