Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino stated that if Tether were to go public, its valuation would reach $515 billion, making it the 19th largest company in the world—surpassing Costco and Coca-Cola. While the figure is impressive, he noted it might be slightly conservative considering Tether's current and growing Bitcoin and gold reserves. Nevertheless, Tether aims to remain humble and is truly excited about the company's next phase of growth.
