Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino made a retrospective about the company’s growth since its beginnings.
In a post in X, Ardoino celebrated the current standing of the company, with its USDT stablecoin reaching a $91.5 billion market cap on several blockchains, $4 billion in excess reserves, and a portfolio of mining, energy, and artificial intelligence (AI) investments.
I remember when I spoke for the first time in front of a public audience about @Tether_to .
It was March 2020, in London, at the CryptoCompare conference.
The title of my speech was "Tether: a story of innovation".
I never did public speaking before.
I was excited and quite shy…— Paolo Ardoino 🍐 (@paoloardoino) December 26, 2023
Paolo Ardoino Celebrates Tether
Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, the company behind the issuance of USDT, remarked on the evolution of the company, noting the size and significance it has reached for “millions of people,” especially in emerging markets and developing countries.
Making an emphasis on the growth of the company and its change in recent years, Ardoino stated:
Tether evolved. We listened to our community, we learned and improved. It’s a process. Always will be. No company has the luxury to exist without challenges. But the team kept its focus. Through the fire and the flames, we carry on.
Ardoino also praised USDT reaching $95.4 billion in market cap, becoming the largest stablecoin in the cryptocurrency market, with $4 billion in excess reserves that are separated from the actual reserves backing the USDT available on the market.
Tether has not sat idle over these earnings, though, as it has slowly invested in several initiatives involving mining, energy renewables, development platforms, and artificial intelligence (AI).

The company has also recently reinforced its compromise in the compliance area, revealing the tight integration with U.S. government agencies like the Secret Service and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).
Finally, Ardoino revealed Tether’s plans to develop new products for 2024 and consolidate the existing ones. “They will be mind-blowing,” he concluded.
