Tether FUD is making the rounds again. Worried?
Their latest attestation shows a big shift into gold and Bitcoin to offset declining interest income.
If those assets dropped 30%, their equity buffer could evaporate, which is where the “Tether is insolvent!” panic kicks in.
But I’m not worried.
Tether has been through a decade of this and USDT is still at $1.00.
Yes, they’re not fully liquid, they operate a fractional-reserve model, much like traditional banks. As long as redemptions stay normal, everything works smoothly.
If there is a panic, liquidity stress could hit quickly.
USDT isn’t “fully backed by cash.” It’s backed by U.S. Treasuries, yield, and some risk assets, scaled to a $174B stablecoin.
If someone wants to kill USDT it's possible but I highly doubt it.
You?
