Tether Under Spotlight Amid Japan’s Treasury Risk

[tradelikepro]

Tether, issuer of the $113B USDT stablecoin, faces scrutiny after concerns Japan may reduce its US Treasury holdings.
USDT is the 17th largest holder of Treasuries worldwide, making it vulnerable to bond market volatility.
While analysts warn of potential depeg risks, investor sentiment remains skeptical, with market odds for a USDT depeg at just 0.5%, reflecting confidence in Tether’s $10B profit buffer and past stability.
