Tether Bids To Acquire Juventus FC

Tether submitted a binding proposal Friday to buy Exor's 65.4% stake in Juventus FC and pledged an additional $1 billion investment if the takeover completes, followed by a public tender for remaining shares at the same price. The crypto firm, which already holds over 10% of the club and cites strong reserves—including USDT market cap near $188 billion, reported profits over $10 billion in nine months, and 116 tons of gold—saw Juventus' JUV token rise about 30%.
