Title: Tether Is Pumping the Price of Bitcoin
Post by: CryptoGirl on November 30, 2017, 01:04:05 PM
Within a week of being hacked for $30 million, Tether is able to “print” over $120 million of new currency, which then can only be exchanged for other cryptocurrencies.

So basically since Tether is required to have an equivalent amount of dollars in a bank (no one knows which one), this means an institutional investor believed that despite being hacked, dumping in a $120 million for USDT is a wise investment decision.

    The more I dive into the Tether controversy, the more I see an impending problem for Bitcoin. They just created another $45 million tether. In total, that makes +$90 million in extra Tether this week. Tell me, do you think a bank would lend them that much money after a $30M hack?
