Crypto Industry News:

Tether, the company responsible for issuing the largest stablecoin in terms of USDT market capitalization, announced that it has completely eliminated commercial papers from its reserves, a long-sought target in its first attempts to strengthen treasury reserves.

"The communique is part of Tether's continued efforts to increase transparency, with investor protection at the heart of Tethers' reserve management," reads the Tether announcement.

CTO of Tether, Paolo Ardoino, was quoted earlier this year saying the company intends to reduce its exposure to commercial papers by the end of 2022.

Achieving this required the elimination of over $ 30 billion in commercial assets, which Tether said were achieved "without any loss", which the stablecoin provider says is "evidence of how Tethers reserves are conservatively and professionally managed".
