Tether has cleared a hurdle that critics said would never happen: a full, independent financial audit of its books. The company announced on August 13, 2026, that KPMG U.S. completed a comprehensive audit of Tether International, S.A. de C.V.’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the results came back clean. For an industry built on trust but often short on outside verification, this Tether financial audit marks a genuine turning point.
