Tether reports over $1 billion in Q1 2026 net profits amid volatile markets, with USDT users hitting 570M all-time high.

According to Henri Arslanian, Tether reported $1 billion in profits for the last quarter and is now targeting expansion into the US market, which is considered a low-risk move given its strong financial performance (source: Henri Arslanian on Twitter, May 28, 2025). For traders, this signals increased stability and liquidity for USDT, with potential for tighter spreads and higher trading volumes across major exchanges. Tether's US focus could strengthen its position as the leading stablecoin, influencing Bitcoin and altcoin pairings and impacting DeFi protocols leveraging USDT liquidity (source: Henri Arslanian, Twitter).
