Tether FUD going full steam in alt channels...
It's yet another indicator of how clueless many 'crypto peeps' are. For years now, neither Tether truthers (who are often shitcoin desperados) nor the NYAG have ever found evidence of fraud - but THEY 'know' something is foul!☝️🧐🤡
Connecting USDT only (!) to Bitcoin, their wishful thinking is: if Tether failed, so would BTC, which would justify their investment in [insert shitcoin here] instead.

In fact, this would be good for #Bitcoin: it's role as the only crypto reference currency would be reenforced.
Beside their technical cluelessness on how Tether actually 'flows', and their bias of Tether as a 'Bitcoin helper', they completely miss the likely actual reason behind the anti USDT rumors:

to lure newbies into the much more regulated USDC.

1/4 The idea that #SatoshiNakamoto has created #Bitcoin to casually pay for coffee or beer doesn't make much sense to me. He couldn't have seriously believed that waiting for 10 minutes at the cashier would have been practical...
2/4 The genesis block instead clearly illustrates that what he intended to create was a p2p alternative for banks, or more accurate: central banks. He wanted to empower people and allow them to act as their own banks, iow: to fully control their own money. Image
3/4 So it seems reasonable to conclude that #Bitcoin wasn't meant to be a *daily* medium of exchange (MoE), but rather a Store of Value (SoV). A way to move and store value in an unconfiscatable, secure and ultimately non-inflationary way, independent from authorities.
