Tether Invests $100 Million in U.S.-Regulated Crypto Bank Anchorage

Tether’s $100 million investment values Anchorage Digital at $4.2 billion, reinforcing partnerships to support regulated stablecoin infrastructure and institutional crypto participation.

  • On Feb. 4, Tether Investments made a $100 million strategic equity investment in Anchorage Digital, valuing the bank at $4.2 billion, Anchorage said on Feb. 5.
  • Anchorage Digital, the U.S.'s first federally chartered digital asset bank, already serves as Tether's banking partner and issuer for the USAT stablecoin, and last week they teamed on a U.S.-focused stablecoin under the GENIUS Act.
  • Anchorage introduced its first-ever tender offer, allowing employees to sell equity at the same valuation; Nathan McCauley said the investment validates the firm's long-term approach.
  • The investment gives Tether a foothold in U.S. stablecoin infrastructure as the market shifts toward regulated players, and both firms said the deal promotes stability, transparency, and confidence to boost institutional participants.
  • Amid the GENIUS Act written into law last year, regulatory debate over stablecoin yield continues as banks and lawmakers shape policy and policymakers influence industry strategy.
