RE: Know USDT? Meet TUSD its Competitor!
Even if the numbers on the surface did not add up, the backend could be telling a very different story. I’m not saying the 100% have it in the bank at all times, but I’m pretty proof of existence should not be hard for them.
Honestly, until the investigation against them falsifying the claim is closed I’m going to be cautious with that coin. I never let myself sit in it for more than a few days, and feel like I’m always increasing my risk when I do. I hope it is decided in their favor (meaning they can prove their claim is true), but I find it too unlikely to bet on.
Tether/Bitfinex were served subpoenas on December 6, 2017, and shortly thereafter the largest amounts of Tether were printed and volume and price action exploded to the highest levels in cryptocurrency history. It is 99% probably not mere coincidence. People are leery of the actions of these entities because they have already drawn investigative scrutiny and are likely being set up to fall when central banks and governments themselves have problems keeping people locked in to their currencies as cryptocurrencies start to look like more viable alternatives for people to park their cash or funnel funds as crises start to hit multiple nations at once.
