1/ THREAD: As stated earlier in relation to today’s Bloomberg report on Bitfinex/Tether, I intend to continue reporting and clear up some misconceptions that exist. I focus on the first misconception here, relating to the alleged Bitfinex owned bank accounts. 2/ The misconception cleared up in the Bloomberg piece is relatively small, but significant in more than a few ways that will become clear in time. Here’s the link to the article, I’ll add some detail to it below. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
