Nope, there is a lot of legitimate concerns but the fact is that they are still here. Taking a trade is about taking a bet with a probability to win/lose, and it's just that betting against Tether is worth at most a meagre 2x with a lot of related risks as outlined in the article, whereas there are much faster and safer way to do a 2x in crypto.

After all, big money tried: spreading cheap FUD at the worst moment (FTX), betting heavy against... It didn't work out for them, but they tried and relative to their size, it didn't even cost them that much, I'm sure and it was worth the shot (as despicable as it looks).




So evidence that this article is FUD is that Tether is not yet bankrupt?

Couldn't the same have been said of FTX right up until the moment its insolvency became public knowledge?

I'm curious what you consider safer ways to double ones money in crypto.
