2025.07. 07 本文字数：3594，阅读时长大约6分钟 作者 | 一财评论 上周我们分析了世界第二大稳定币公司Circle成功上市后股价大涨的原因（参见7月1日《第一财经日 报》A11），目前其股价维持在180美元上下，比IPO价格翻了近6倍。以Circle去年利润1.57亿美元 来估值，目前全球第一大稳定币公司Tether去年利润达130亿美元，如果上市其估值可以轻松突破万 亿美元。截至2024年底，Tether只有150名正式员工，却创造了相当于全球最赚钱投行高盛45000名 员工的利润水平。本文将分析这家世界第一大稳定币公司是如何炼成的。 Tether的起源和在中国香港成立的交易所Bitfinex紧密相连。早期，Tether依赖于Bitfinex的团队支 持，以保持运营的高度灵活性，并维持极为精简的员工规模。Tether保守与谨慎的发展策略以及应对 监管环境的方式，缘于其经历过的多次危机与"濒临破产"的困境。直到Tether在应对FTX倒闭引发的 2022年加密货币寒冬时表现相对优异，这一审慎战略才开始变化。到2025年，Tether凭借其盈利能 力、庞大的规模以及相对简单的核心业务模式，成为行 ...

核 心 观 点 5月下旬，美国、中国香港相继通过稳定币监管法案，成为市场新焦点。在过去一年中，前五大稳定币市值增长约45%。在高速增长下，稳定币将对汇率产生 怎样的影响？ 稳定币如何传导至汇率？ 稳定币是通过锚定资产实现币值相对稳定的加密货币， 主要包括链下资产支持型、链上资产支持型和算法型，以美元稳定币USDT和 USDC为主。 发行机制方面， USDT通过客户存入美元后，按固定比例向客户发行等值稳定币，且将美元资金投资于高流动性资产以保证刚性兑付。 供需方面， 美元稳定币降低交易成本，提升美元需求，支撑美元指数；对弱势货币国家则可能导致本币贬值和资本外流。 风险方面， 稳定币交易快速增长带来监管难度、流 动性和市场风险，后二者叠加可能触发流动性紧缩，促使央行干预。 市场集中度方面， 2024年USDT和USDC总量占总交易量和总供应量的绝对多数，市场高度集 中。同时， 交易规模持续快速增长， 2024年增速超50%，2025年前6个月累计增速继续上行。 稳定币能救美元么 ？ 对于本币而言，稳定币是一针"强心剂"。 稳定币的结算成本更低，根据coinbase研究，目前全球范围内汇款200美元的平均成本仍为汇 ...

Tether凭借其盈利能力、庞大的规模以及相对简单的核心业务模式，成为行业中的佼佼者。 Tether最初以Realcoin的名义于2014年由Brock Pierce、Reeve Collins和Craig Sellars在中国香港创立，旨 在为去中心化的比特币交易创建一种与美元挂钩的稳定币。不久后，该项目更名为Tether，并在Omni层 （比特币"第二层"协议）推出，解决了比特币交易中的高交易费用等问题。随后，其原始创始人退出了 业务，将公司出售给了Bitfinex所有者。他们认为Tether是连接全球比特币平台的关键桥梁，使比特币能 够像其他金融产品一样交易，而无需传统金融体系的参与。 当时，Bitfinex还是一家新兴的比特币交易所，人员规模较小，但从一开始便是一个去中心化的企业。 Bitfinex的首席财务官，即Devasini曾是一名意大利整形外科医生，后来转向开发基于Linux的业务，包 括卫星电视接收器和机顶盒。在接触到Linux的开源理念后，Devasini和新一届Tether管理层自然对去中 心化技术和加密技术持开放态度。 在中本聪2009年发布比特币白皮书后，最早的比特币用户主要是那些极 ...
