TETHER CTO Paolo Ardodino calls “natural bitcoin” gold
Tether ranks among the most profitable cryptographic companies, operating the largest USDT in Stablecoin, with a market capitalization of $ 168 billion. The company generated $ 5.7 billion in profits during the first half of this year. In addition, the stable firm is also a major holder of American treasury bills, as support for its native stable.
Tether CTO Paolo Ardoino is an ardent defender of gold, previously declaring that metal is a safer asset than any sovereign motto. He also thinks that the yellow metal serves as an additional investment in Bitcoin. Previously, Ardoino also described the gold as “natural bitcoin”.
This is not the first time that the stallion firm has explored the investment in gold. According to the company’s financial statements, TETHER already has a massive value of $ 8.7 billion in gold in Zurich’s safe.
However, Tether’s interest in gold has raised eyebrows in the traditionally conservative gold mining sector. The initiates of the industry expressed skepticism as to the approach of the company. “They love gold. I don’t think they have a strategy,” said a mining frame.
