  • Tether CEO: Ripple CEO's comments spread fear about USDT

    According to reports, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino responded to comments made by Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse in a recent interview about the stablecoin Tether (USDT) on social media. Garlinghouse stated in the interview that the US government is pursuing Tether, which is clear to me. Ardoino said that an uninformed CEO leading a company under SEC investigation launched a competitive stablecoin (cui prodest), spreading fear about USDT. Ardoino emphasized Tether's critical role in providing financial services to unbanked communities in emerging and developing regions, which are often overlooked by traditional financial institutions. He further asserted that Tether adheres to strict transparency and regulatory compliance standards, as evidenced by its compliance with the OFAC/SDN list, its partnership with Chainalysis, and its extensive collaboration with international law enforcement agencies to detect and prevent illegal activities, thereby enhancing the security of its ecosystem.

Some experts believe that Garlinghouse's statement is a very big insider report, and if it really happens, there will be a huge selling pressure in the USDT stablecoin market. In this case, the value of USDT will experience a significant decline.
