#Tether unblacklisted two wallet addresses on the ethereum chain yesterday:

※:etherscan.io/address/0x9f1c…
※:etherscan.io/address/0xdec1…
🧵2/Ω 0x9f1c87c3224dca911f6412fba5865c30647bddb1 proceeded to move only a small amount of $USDT...

but also made invalid calls to the $USDT contract...
🧵3/Ω
#0xdec1bcaa046feb7343cb7292bb1193fa2d4fd68e doesn't seem to have done much of anything.

WTF is going on?
🧵4/Ω
Separately $700mm moved from wallet tagged "#Binance: BTC Proof Of Reserves".
etherscan.io/tx/0xa0ed5235d…

If those tags are correct¹ that begs a few questions:

a) Why are there BTC chain reserves on the eth chain?
b) Whose BTC is backed by $USDT

¹ (def not a given)
🧵5/Ω
His Excellency's supposed "chain swap" of $400mm eth backed $USDT to Tron because ??? shows up in the data as a $400mm increase in the size of Tether's treasury wallet.
🧵6/Ω
Also note that the "Binance: BTC Proof of Assets" wallet shows an earlier transaction of $$609mm being sent to one of #Binance's user wallets.
🧵7/Ω
Volume of tethers moved per day on-chain is a good historical indicator of big events like #FTXplosion or the #Terraclysm.

Not spiking right now but... it is *consistently* high in way we have not seen before.

Data came from checking in on my @DuneAnalytics dashboard for $USDT on the eth chain. Feel free to take a look and thanks to Dune for making this incredible tool free. cc @DesoGames @DylanLeClair_ @ramahluwalia @BennettTomlin @CasPiancey

#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: Epstein's Crypto Touch

Jeffrey Epstein touched cryptocurrency in a lot of inappropriate places. #epsteinfiles #epstein #JeffreyEpstein

i found a pretty fascinating trove of documents that detail one man's long and arduous 𝘬𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘧 to force #Tether to seize ~$3 million USDT that he lost to an address poisoning scam a few years back. Image
🧵2/Ω
Asif Ayub Patel was innocently attempting to purchase $3 million worth of gold bars from Northern Lights, a precious metals dealer based in Hong Kong that prefers to be paid in Tether, as any freedom loving Dubai resident is wont to do.

Unfortunately he was careless & got pwned by an address poisoning attack: scammer sends you some crypto from an address that starts/ends w/the same characters as the address you are trying to transact with and hopes you copy/paste from recent txns w/out checking. Image

Since #Israel attacked #Iran Tether has frozen 112 addresses on Tron and Ethereum.

- Collectively those wallets received ~$700 million USDT before being frozen
- The top 40 of those wallets are *all* on Justin Sun's Tron blockchain

Iranian exchanges mostly use Tron USDT. Image

Dune dashboard with all the historical Tether blacklist data for those two blockchains can be found here:

#Nobitex, the largest crypto exchange in Iran (which is basically a Binance feeder fund, but I digress), openly advises its users on how to avoid sanctions via Tether USDT even though that is a blatant violation of all kinds of laws.

apparently Trump's #WorldLibertyFi wallet had a sudden huge drop off in its token holdings exactly as $TRUMP and #MELANIA were launched...

...and then right after $TRUMP weekend it suddenly had $400mm in assets despite selling <$200mm in $WLFI to JustinSun etc. Image
🧿2/Ω
full $WLFI dashboard from @seoulcalibureth:
dune.com/seoul/wlfi
🧿3/Ω
it really looks like a few days before the $TRUMP launch someone borrowed all $ETH from #WorldLibertyFi treasury, sent it to a bunch of different Coinbase accounts (sus?), and then it came back from #CowSwap trades post-TrumpCoin w/e.

also at least one peel chain. Image

they're going to transfer incredible amounts of taxpayer money into the hands of crypto bros. that's what this has always been about.
and if you think i'm exaggerating you haven't been paying attention. the taxpayer bailout of the crypto industry is already well underway.

they've already drafted the federal legislation to pump most of a trillion dollars into bitcoin under the delusional fairy tale of "paying down the national debt" (lol)

Thread for those who don't have the intestinal fortitude to sit through the Elmo / Rogan interview. Image
🧵2/Ω
Both these guys seem to regard the FBI asking (not forcing) "old Twitter" to take down some tweets as a crime against humanity roughly on the scale of the Stalin's gulags.

Rogan: "We were headed down a path of censorship and of control of narratives that is UNPRECEDENTED."
🧵3/Ω
The comparison to Stalin is not my hyperbole. Later in the interview Elmo will compare NY DA Alvin Bragg to Lavrenti Beria, the head of Stalin's secret police and one of history's greatest monsters. Image
