First, please read this :

USDT is a cryptocurrency asset issued on the BTC blockchain via the OMNI Layer Protocol. Every USD Tether is backed by a USD held by the Tether company which can be redeem via their platform.
Why we need USDT ?

1.It protects you from volatility: No matter what the cryptocurreny market does, USD Tether will always be at a similar price, as it's anchored to the USD. One USDT is always backed by one USD.
2. It's extremely valuable when the market dips: If the market dips, you want to be ready to buy cheaper crypto currencies. The only way to do so is to have USDT.

3. It minimizes the risk of your portfolio: If you wish to minimize the risk exposure of your portfolio in a specific moment, changing to USDT minimizes highly that risk
4. You can leave your uninvested money without assuming risk: Very often you do not want to take your money out of the cryptospace, and you are also not sure what currency to invest in. USDT suffers no losses, as it's backed, and it's perfect to wait for the correct timing and currency.
5. Faster than Fiat: If you have USD, EUR or JPY, it will take a while until you can change them for bitcoin. But if you have USDT, EURT or JPYT (Tether currencies), you can immediately change them for bitcoins or other cryptos!

Today, USDT dumped, because 1USDT = 0.96USD, so wrong. 1 USDT must be 1 USD, no more - no less.
We really need USD in crypto market, but Tether did their job so bad.
I found some name : USDC, TUSD or PAX. Can we trust ? Share you opinion there Wink

Really, Do we need? First of all, Tether has a bad imposition on the market now. For the last few weeks, everyone was talking about a possible Tether problem. And today we saw a show. Bitcoin showed the sky before. Behind the ground with the same speed!
