I'm no longer just anti-crypto I'm now full on terrified that this ponzi will bring us all downhttps://twitter.com/CAVandy/status/1446096096690950149?s=20 …
Vandy, C. A. added,
Ironically, if Tether is ~a fraud and doesn't actually hold any CP it's less of a threat to financial stability.
I'm sure you're right but what if everyone realizes they don't hold their cash and goes to retrieve it at the same time, revealing the grift? that will spark some IRL losses, no?
if Tether held a bunch of CP and was forced to sell lots of it to meet redemptions of its crypto liabilities, that would be a problem. but if they don't actually hold much, then...there's no CP to dump!
if we assume for the sake of argument Tether holds zero assets backing its crypto liabilities, and this was made public tomorrow, very little would happen in core USD funding or debt markets.
The article confirmed that a quarter of the funds are held in a Bahamian bank, so it would definitely pose a problem for the Bahamas lol, and there's also a confirmation that they hold Chinese CP but no word on American CP
yeah, I was just using an ad absurdum example to illustrate the point that fraud risk and finstab risk are inverse at the extremes
