Sign InTether, the issuer of the world's largest stablecoin, has disclosed an 8.2% strategic stake in Antalpha, a firm specializing in bitcoin mining finance. This investment comes as the total supply of USDT reached a new all-time high of $188 billion, marking a significant milestone in the company's market capitalization. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino confirmed that broader stablecoin liquidity is currently sitting near record levels across the industry. This dual expansion underscores Tether's strategy of diversifying into Bitcoin infrastructure while maintaining a dominant liquidity position. Analysts suggest that the record-breaking supply, combined with the Antalpha stake, strengthens the institutional link between stablecoin issuers and the mining sector. The surge in USDT availability provides a robust financial foundation for mining firms seeking innovative funding solutions in an increasingly liquid market.
