About $158.4 million, representing roughly 90% of the reserve portfolio, was held in reverse repurchase agreements backed by US Treasury securities. The remaining $17.5 million was held in cash.

Anchorage Digital Bank said the assets were maintained in segregated and unencumbered fiduciary trust accounts for of USA₮ holders.

The July figures indicate that circulation has remained relatively stable after expanding rapidly during the first half of the year. USA₮ has now remained above $175 million across two consecutive month-end reports.

The reserve report was prepared under the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ 2025 criteria for reporting on asset-backed fiat-pegged tokens.

Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said the company sees stablecoins becoming a larger part of the infrastructure used for payments and settlement as financial activity moves onto digital systems.

USA₮ CEO Bo Hines said the company is positioning the stablecoin for businesses and institutions seeking a digital dollar issued under US banking oversight.

USA₮ is being expanded across payments, settlement, treasury operations, and digital platforms as Tether builds out its US focused stablecoin business.
