NEW YORK, May 2 (Reuters) - Tether slowed its gold purchases in the first quarter of 2026 to support its USDT stablecoin, per Reuters reporting. Quarterly data shows its gold buying volume fell to roughly 6 metric tons, down from 27 tons in the prior quarter. As of March 31, Tether’s gold reserves backing USDT rose to about 132 metric tons (valued at ~$19.8 billion), accounting for roughly 10% of its reserve structure. U.S. Treasury bonds remain its primary asset at ~$117 billion, while Bitcoin reserves total ~$7 billion.

Tether had previously planned to allocate 10% to 15% of its ~$20 billion investment portfolio to physical gold, but the dedicated trading team for these transactions was disbanded in March this year due to management structure constraints.
