ether shifts $780M in Bitcoin to reserve — its biggest move in 9 months
Stablecoin issuer Tether moved over 8,400 Bitcoin to its reserve in its biggest move since March.
Stablecoin issuer Tether moved almost $780 million worth of Bitcoin into its corporate Bitcoin reserve in its largest move since March.
Arkham Intelligence shows wallets tagged for Tether’s Bitcoin BTC reserve as having received separate transfers of around 7,628.9 BTC and 775.6 BTC on Dec. 30, totaling just under 8,404.5 BTC.
The latest BTC additions are worth a total of $777.4 million with Bitcoin hovering around $92,500. It brings Tether’s total holdings to 83,759 BTC, worth just under $7.75 billion.
Tether, which issues the stablecoin of the same name, Tether USDT , said in May 2023 that it planned to “regularly allocate up to 15% of its net realized operating profits toward purchasing Bitcoin.”
It’s the company’s first significant move since March 31, when it added about 8,888 BTC just weeks after the cryptocurrency broke past $70,000 for the first time and soared past a long-held all-time high.
Bitcoin doubled in price during 2024 and is currently up 108% on the year, though it has been trading down this week, and is down from its mid-December all-time high of around $108,000
Tether has the second-largest Bitcoin holdings among privately owned businesses, surpassed only by the 140,000 BTC holdings of blockchain software firm Block.one, according to Bitbo data.
Tether’s holdings put it in third place overall for both private and public companies, which software firm MicroStrategy leads with its 446,400 BTC holdings.
Corporate Bitcoin treasuries have seen a bump in popularity with Bitcoin’s price rise over the year, with a handful of firms announcing they’re putting the cryptocurrency on their books in hopes of boosting their share prices.
One of the latest Bitcoin adopters, KULR Technology Group, said on Dec. 16 that it spent $21 million buying 217.18 Bitcoin, which saw its stock price close up more than 40% that day to an all-time high of $4.80.
Additionally, biopharmaceutical company Quantum BioPharma on Dec. 20 said it bought $1 million worth of BTC and other crypto assets to diversify its treasury.

Tether raids! 1 billion USDTs are wiped out, are Bitcoin and the market facing an impact?
On December 31, Tether suddenly destroyed 1 billion USDTs! This action caused the total supply of stablecoins to drop from the historical peak of 140 billion to 137 billion. This is not only the first large-scale withdrawal of USDT liquidity in a year, but also coincides with the market's overall decline, with Bitcoin briefly falling below $93,000.
More noteworthy is that Tether's destruction mainly affected USDT on the TRON network, while the stablecoin on the Ethereum network still has a supply of 76.9 billion. Behind the withdrawal of funds from TRON, is it a tacit redemption between whales and exchanges? Or is it a shift to the deep layout of Ethereum DeFi?
The market effect brought about by the destruction of USDT is speculative: is it the beginning of a new order of stablecoins, or is Tether paving the way for changes in the future regulatory storm? The actions of the liquidity giants are reshaping the market landscape.
Insight into the market rhythm is the beginning of controlling wealth! Follow Lao Tan closely, plan ahead, and let the next peak belong to your account! Follow Lao Tan and never let the opportunity slip away!

USDT Capitalization Shrinks as MiCA Comes into Force
On December 30, the EU regulation for digital assets MiCA came into force. The market cap of the leading stablecoin USDT fell from over $141 billion in the middle of the month to ~$137.5 billion.
The new rules impose strict requirements for issuers of “stablecoins”, including licensing, reserve and liquidity standards.
Agné Linge from WeFi noted in a commentary for The Block that compliance with the regulation is economically burdensome for large companies in the segment, such as Tether, a diversified business behind USDT.
The new EU law requires that small stablecoin issuers now keep 30% of their reserves in low-risk commercial banks within the EU, while for larger players like Tether the bar is set at 60% or more,”
However, the expert does not expect serious financial consequences for the USDT issuer due to leaving the European Union. The company will receive about $10 billion in profit by the end of the year, has significant cash reserves and diversifies its income through investments, Linge noted.
She also emphasized that most EU countries provide a transition period of six to 18 months to adapt to the rules that have come into force.
Amid regulatory uncertainty, some European crypto exchanges have taken preventive measures. Coinbase Europe has delisted USDT and five other stablecoins.
Competitors Binance and Crypto.com, on the contrary, did not stop supporting the assets. Both platforms preferred to observe the implementation of MiCA and wait for clarification regarding the new rules.
Paybis Chief Revenue Officer Uldis Teraudkalns believes that the law “will transform the EU crypto landscape with far-reaching consequences.” The need to comply with the requirements will force a number of companies out of the union, regardless of their size, he suggested.
The main beneficiaries could be jurisdictions close to the EU, such as the UK and Switzerland. This will depend on how regulatory regimes develop there,” Teraudkalns admitted.

#MICA vs #Tether . There was a lot of discussion about #USDT this week due to the new rules in Europe. We are at the beginning of a new era in which some concepts need to be revised. Europe is called the old continent. Being old is good for history and experience, an older person is most of the time wise and understands when it is time to have a new approach. The problem with European leaders is that they want to control something they do not understand using the same mechanisms that the old banking system used. The new government in the US, unlike European rulers, is in favor of the new blockchain technology and is going to focus on legislation on cryptocurrencies with people from the sector, that is, experts who know what they are doing. In addition, the American government is interested in having its debts bought, which is what Tether is doing. I think that in this competition Europe will be hurt. 2025 will be an interesting year because of AI Blockchain and quantum computing. Europe is behind and already wants to regulate something that it does not yet understand. As I said, I think Europe is missing an opportunity. I agree with the need to regulate, but we must use instruments that are appropriate to the times and technology, and not the same ones as always, with the aim of helping a system that is getting older and does not want to change: the European banking system.

🔥💥🚀Tether Faces EU Regulatory Challenges, $2 Billion Market Cap Drop Reported💸💸💸
#Tether (USDT), the leading stablecoin globally, experienced a $2 billion contraction in its market capitalization this December, largely attributed to challenges stemming from the European Union’s imminent Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulations. The MiCA framework, which is set to be fully enforced starting December 30, 2024, imposes strict licensing requirements for stablecoin issuers operating in EU jurisdictions.
In response to Tether’s apparent inability to meet these regulatory standards, several European exchanges have preemptively delisted USDT. The stablecoin’s market cap subsequently declined from $140.5 billion to $138 billion over the past week, marking the most significant dip within a year of steady growth. Furthermore, USDT’s trading price recently hit $0.997, a two-year low for the stablecoin intended to maintain a consistent 1:1 peg with the US dollar.
Regulatory Concerns: Real Threat or Temporary Panic?
Despite the rising fears, holding USDT remains lawful under the MiCA regulations, as traders can retain it in non-custodial wallets or transact through decentralized exchanges. The primary limitation lies in the prohibition of USDT trading on MiCA-compliant platforms. Analysts, however, remain optimistic. Axel Bitblaze noted that with Asia accounting for 80% of USDT’s trading volume, the EU’s regulatory impact might remain minimal. Despite the panic, Tether’s market cap has only dropped by 1.4%, while its trading activity continues to outpace that of the top 10 cryptocurrencies combined.
Tether’s strategic moves, including scaling back its EU operations and diversifying into MiCA-compliant stablecoins, further reflect its adaptability. While this isn’t the first time Tether has faced regulatory scrutiny, past controversies—from the FTX collapse in 2022 to allegations of money laundering—demonstrate its resilience. Each time, USDT has recovered to maintain its dominance in the stablecoin market.
Analysts Suggest Opportunities Amid FUD
Blockchain experts like Axel Bitblaze and Samson Mow argue that market fears surrounding Tether often emerge during moments of either extreme market volatility or significant growth. Bitblaze views this period as a potential buying opportunity, predicting a surge in crypto values by early 2025, with USDT retaining its position as the leading stablecoin.
Samson Mow echoed these sentiments, highlighting Tether’s robust financial backing and widespread adoption. With $143 billion in assets under management, a position as one of the top holders of US treasuries globally, and far greater trading volumes than its competitors, Tether’s foundation appears unshakable. According to Mow, critiques of Tether often stem from misinformation or hidden agendas rather than genuine concern over its stability or compliance.

While this isn’t the first time Tether has faced regulatory scrutiny, past controversies—from the FTX collapse in 2022 to allegations of money laundering—demonstrate its resilience. Each time, USDT has recovered to maintain its dominance in the stablecoin market.
Analysts Suggest Opportunities Amid FUD
Blockchain experts like Axel Bitblaze and Samson Mow argue that market fears surrounding Tether often emerge during moments of either extreme market volatility or significant growth. Bitblaze views this period as a potential buying opportunity, predicting a surge in crypto values by early 2025, with USDT retaining its position as the leading stablecoin.
Samson Mow echoed these sentiments, highlighting Tether’s robust financial backing and widespread adoption. With $143 billion in assets under management, a position as one of the top holders of US treasuries globally, and far greater trading volumes than its competitors, Tether’s foundation appears unshakable. According to Mow, critiques of Tether often stem from misinformation or hidden agendas rather than genuine concern over its stability or compliance.
