Odaily News In response to Arthur Hayes' doubts about USDT operations, former Citibank encryption research head Joseph stated on the X platform that @CryptoHayes' analysis missed several key points: 1. Disclosure of assets ≠ all corporate assets. USDT adopts a "matching principle" for disclosing reserves, but its undisclosed balance sheet includes equity investment income, mining operations, corporate reserves, and potential Bitcoin holdings, with remaining profits distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends. 2. Extremely high profit margins and equity value. Tether holds $120 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds (annualized 4% yield), with a projected annual net profit of about $10 billion from 2023 (with only 150 employees), making it arguably the world's most efficient money printer; equity valuation may reach $50-100 billion.

Japan's 10-year government bond yield rose to 1.86%, reaching a new high since 2008 and triggering tremors in global markets. As the Bank of Japan hinted that it would consider raising interest rates at the December rate meeting, the long-standing era of low interest rates may come to an end, directly threatening the support for global risk assets and Yen Carry Trade in the crypto market. In the past year, Japan's government bond yields nearly doubled, with the two-year yield reaching 1% for the first time since 2008. Although 1.86% is still considered low globally, it represents a significant structural change for Japan, a country that has long been in a "zero interest rate" environment. The low interest rates had allowed global investors to borrow yen at extremely low costs, flooding into U.S. Treasuries, European bonds, and high-risk assets, including encryption. However, as domestic yields rise, funds may begin to flow back to Japan.

American model Bri Tracy recently explored the role that XRP might play in the reverse yen arbitrage trading in Japan, which amounts to a staggering $4.5 trillion. Tracy pointed out that XRP has fast and programmable settlement capabilities that meet the needs of modern financial infrastructure. She emphasized that the bank for international settlements (BIS) recommends effective settlement of assets to be turned over 8 to 10 times daily to ensure liquidity, while the turnover speed of XRP far exceeds this standard. Japan's SBI Remit has already started using XRP for fast cross-border settlements. Reverse arbitrage trading refers to investors borrowing funds in low interest rate countries and investing in high-yield assets to obtain differential returns. Japan has long maintained a low interest rate, even negative interest rate environment, giving rise to a large-scale yen arbitrage trading. According to data from the Japanese Ministry of Finance, the trading scale is approximately 4.2 trillion to 4.5 trillion USD. After the Bank of Japan ended negative interest rates and raised the benchmark rate in March 2024, some arbitrage trades triggered reverse operations, with about 40% of trades closed and the remaining 60% still ongoing.
