Tether announced Thursday that Big Four accounting firm KPMG issued an unqualified audit opinion on the 2025 financial statements of Tether International, the company behind the world’s largest stablecoin, USDT. An unqualified opinion is the best possible outcome, meaning auditors found no material problems with how the financial statements were prepared.
