Tether Investments Sa de CV（“ Tether Investments”）是Tether Group的分支機構，已宣布收購Elemental Altus Royalties Corp.的大量股份。

An affiliate of the Tether Group, Tether Investments S.A. de C.V. ("Tether Investments"), has announced the acquisition of a substantial stake in Elemental Altus Royalties Corp. (CVE:ELE) (OTC:ELMNF) (“Elemental”), a publicly listed gold-focused royalty company based in Canada.

繫繩集團的分支機構Tether Investments Sa de CV（“ Tether Investments”）宣布收購了Elemental Altus Altus Royalties Corp.（CVE：ELE）（OTC：ELMNF）（“ Elemental”）（“ Elemental”），這是一家以加拿大為基礎的GoldCocunity Pocencence的皇室公司。

This investment marks a significant step in Tether's broader strategy to integrate long-term, stable assets such as gold and Bitcoin into its ecosystem, both as a financial hedge and as part of its commitment to building robust, decentralized, and resilient infrastructure for the digital economy.

這項投資標誌著Tether的更廣泛的戰略邁出了重要的一步，即將長期，穩定的資產（例如黃金和比特幣）整合到其生態系統中，既是金融對沖，又是其致力於為數字經濟建立強大，分散和彈性的基礎設施的承諾的一部分。

On June 10, 2025, Tether Investments acquired 78,421,780 common shares of Elemental (the "La Mancha Shares") from La Mancha Investments S.à.r.l., representing approximately 31.9% of Elemental's issued and outstanding shares. This transaction was completed offshore via private agreement.

2025年6月10日，繫繩投資從La Mancha InvestmentsS.à.rl收購了78,421,780股Elemental（“ La Mancha股票”）的普通股，約佔Elemental已發行和流通股份的31.9％。該交易通過私人協議完成了離岸。

At the same time as acquiring the La Mancha Shares, Tether Investments signed an option agreement (called the "Alpha 1 Option Agreement") on June 10, 2025, with AlphaStream Limited and its fully owned subsidiary, Alpha 1 SPV Limited ("Alpha 1"). Both companies are privately held and incorporated under the laws of the Abu Dhabi Global Market.

在收購La Mancha股票的同時，Tether Investments於2025年6月10日簽署了一項期權協議（稱為“ Alpha 1期權協議”），並擁有Alplastream Limited及其全部擁有的子公司Alpha 1 SPV Limited（“ Alpha 1”）。這兩家公司均根據阿布扎比全球市場的法律私下持有和成立。

Under this agreement, Alpha 1 granted Tether Investments the option, but not the obligation, to buy a total of 34,444,580 Elemental common shares (the "Alpha 1 Shares") in a deal that would take place outside of Canada. This option (the "Alpha 1 Share Option") is subject to certain terms and conditions. The option cannot be exercised before October 29, 2025, unless Elemental gives its approval.

根據本協議，Alpha 1批准了Tether Investments在加拿大以外的一項交易中購買總計34,444,580個基本普通股（“ Alpha 1股”）的期權，但沒有義務。此選項（“ Alpha 1共享選項”）受某些條款和條件的約束。該選項不能在2025年10月29日之前行使，除非Elemental給予批准。

"Tether's growing investments in gold and Bitcoin reflect our forward-looking strategy to build a more resilient and transparent financial system," said Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether. "Just as Bitcoin provides the ultimate decentralized hedge against monetary inflation, gold continues to be a time-tested store of value. By gaining exposure to a diversified portfolio of gold royalties through Elemental, we are strengthening the backing of our ecosystem while advancing Tether Gold and future commodity-backed digital assets. This is not just about investment—it’s about building financial infrastructure for the next century."

Tether首席執行官Paolo Ardoino說：“ Tether對黃金和比特幣的投資不斷增長，反映了我們建立更具彈性和透明金融體系的前瞻性戰略。” “正如比特幣提供了針對貨幣通貨膨脹的最終分散對沖一樣，黃金仍然是經過時間測試的價值存儲。通過通過元素獲得多樣化的黃金特許權使用費的投資組合，我們正在加強生態系統的支持，同時又有紐帶黃金和未來的數字化資產。

A Dual Pillar Strategy: Bitcoin and Gold

雙支柱策略：比特幣和黃金

Tether Group has previously disclosed holdings of over 100,000 Bitcoin, an overall ownership of physical Gold close to 80 tons, and its own Tether Gold (XAUT), a token backed by physical gold, that has become an increasingly important component of its product and risk strategy.

Tether Group此前曾披露了超過100,000個比特幣的持股，該股份的總體所有權接近80噸，其自己的繩索黃金（XAUT）是由實物黃金支持的代幣，這已成為其產品和風險策略的越來越重要的組成部分。

"We believe in financial systems that are backed by real assets, not just promises," added Ardoino. "Our investment in Elemental underscores our long-standing belief that tangible assets like Bitcoin and gold will underpin the most durable forms of digital value."

Ardoino補充說：“我們相信擁有真正資產的金融系統，而不僅僅是承諾。” “我們對元素的投資強調了我們長期以來的信念，即比特幣和黃金等有形資產將是最耐用的數字價值形式。”

Strengthening the Backbone of Real-World Asset Finance

加強現實世界資產融資的骨幹

Elemental Altus Royalties provides Tether with diversified exposure to global gold production through a royalty and streaming model, which avoids the direct operational risks of mining. This model aligns with Tether's preference for strategic, low-risk exposure to real-world assets that can enhance the transparency and stability of digital financial products.

Elemental Altus特許權使用費通過特許權使用費和流媒體模型為全球黃金生產的多樣化提供了多樣化，這避免了採礦的直接運營風險。該模型符合Tether對戰略性，低風險的接觸對現實世界中資產的偏愛，這些資產可以提高數字金融產品的透明度和穩定性。

Tether Investments may pursue further engagement with Elemental's management and board, exploring avenues for collaboration, governance participation, and long-term capital strategy, subject to regulatory frameworks and market conditions.
