Tether Faces Significant Interest Income Losses from Federal Reserve Rate Cuts, Report Reveals

According to a recent report from CCData, the stablecoin sector is poised to experience a significant decline in interest income due to the Federal Reserve’s latest rate reduction. Centralized stablecoin issuers, which collectively manage around $125 billion in U.S. Treasuries, will be directly impacted. With every 50 basis point cut by the Fed, the annual interest income loss for dollar-pegged stablecoin issuers is projected to be $625 million. Analytical data indicates Tether holds a substantial $93.2 billion in U.S. Treasuries and repurchase agreements, playing a pivotal role in its $5.2 billion net profit for the first half of 2024. Other notable stablecoins include USDC with $28.7 billion in U.S. Treasuries via its Circle Reserve Fund. Additionally, FDUSD, PYUSD, and TUSD maintain Treasury assets worth $1.83 billion, $634 million, and $502 million, respectively.
