USA₮ Reserve Report Shows Continued Growth, Surplus Backing, and Institutional-Grade Stability as U.S. Digital Dollar Framework Takes Shape

30 April 2026 – Anchorage Digital Bank has released the USA₮ Reserve Report as of March 31, 2026, prepared under the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) “2025 Criteria for Stablecoin Reporting: Specific to Asset-Backed Fiat-Pegged Tokens.”

As of 11:59:59 p.m. UTC on March 31, 2026, there were 22,050,123 USA₮ tokens outstanding, an increase of 3,054,211 tokens from February’s 19,001,496.

  • Reserve assets totaled $22,200,850, up from $19,146,639 in February, an increase of $3,053,484 month-over-month.
  • Reserves exceeded tokens outstanding by approximately $150,727, compared to a $145,143 surplus in February, continuing a consistent pattern of overcollateralization across each monthly report.

This report lands at a moment when the U.S. is positioning itself to take a more active role in digital asset infrastructure. Legislative efforts and regulatory guidance are increasingly focused on bringing stablecoin activity onshore, prioritizing transparency, high-quality reserves, and supervised issuance models. USA₮ aligns directly with that direction. Issued through OCC-supervised rails, with reserves held in segregated accounts and disclosed under AICPA criteria, the structure reflects the direction the market is moving toward, not where it has been.

After three consecutive reports, USA₮ is operating with full reserves, a consistent surplus, and disclosures that can be tracked month-to-month under U.S. regulatory oversight. That consistency is being established in a market where scrutiny of stablecoin structures is intensifying, particularly in the U.S., where policymakers are actively shaping frameworks for reserve quality, disclosures, and redemption guarantees. USA₮ is already operating within those parameters, offering a live example of how a regulated digital dollar can function under existing oversight.

“It’s one thing to define a structure for a regulated digital dollar; it’s another to run it consistently over time and show the results,” said Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether. “With each report, USA₮ is demonstrating that you can combine transparency, full reserve backing, and regulatory oversight without sacrificing the efficiency that makes blockchain-based systems useful in the first place. That combination is what will determine which platforms actually scale in the years ahead.”

“By the third report, the focus starts to move away from what USA₮ is supposed to be and toward how it actually performs,” said Bo Hines, CEO of Tether USA₮. “You can see supply increasing, reserves moving in step, and a surplus maintained throughout. That kind of consistency matters more than any single data point. Institutions aren’t evaluating potential, they’re looking for systems that behave predictably under real conditions, and that’s what these reports are starting to show.”

USA₮ continues to expand across payments, settlements, treasury operations, and digital platforms as demand for regulated, transparent digital dollars accelerates.
