❓Question: What happens if we query #Tether's website (gold.tether.to) to ask how many of the 351 addresses that currently hold $XAUT are backed?

Answer: Only 12 of 351

Got #gold? Got proof?

Any thoughts?

#Tether's transparency report claims their physical gold is tracked to 1/1000th of a troy ounce (0.001 $XAUT).

#Tether Gold's whitepaper contradicts the transparency report and claims "six decimal places" (0.000001 $XAUT).

Tether is not meeting either standard of precision.

Another 🧵on #Tether Gold

Let's try to #audit #TetherGold $XAUT with the little information they do provide and let's "trust them" 😉

The top 10 addresses have %98.9 (104,386) of the total supply (105,549) so it's quick and easy to cover the vast majority of the supply....

Spoiler alert: According #TetherGold's own "Gold Allocation Lookup" tool, the top 10 addresses holding almost 99% of the total supply of $XAUT are not fully backed... 😲

Are you surprised?

Of the top 10 addresses #Tether's own data says only 3 addresses have the same amount of #gold allocated as tokens. 4 addresses have no gold allocated but hold 9,595.10 tokens. 2 addresses are under-allocated by 23,453.13 ounces. One address is over-allocated by 219.40 ounces.

The top ten addresses hold 98.90% of the total supply.

The top twenty addresses hold 99.97% of the total supply. #Tether
