Tether Completes KPMG Audit with $6.8 Billion Cushion

Recent Tether news revealed that Ardoino announced the completion of a financial audit with KPMG. According to Samson Mow, the audit showed that Tether’s reserves exceeded its liabilities by $6.8 billion.

The announcement marks an important point in the company’s long-running discussion around its reserves. Mow said that in earlier years, stablecoin issuers faced criticism for generally relying on attestations rather than full audits. He argued that the latest KPMG work gives Tether a stronger answer to those concerns.
