It may sound strange, but the best and safest alternative to a tether is a real dollar. On some exchanges, it present, for example, at Bitfinex. Safer with him. The rest can collapse at any time.
That doesn't sound strange to me at all. I'm not sure why OP feels the need to keep his funds in Tether unless he's planning on doing some trading relatively soon. If that isn't his plan, I would just cash out to fiat and hold that until the time comes to trade again. There's no way I'd keep a coin on an exchange, not even a stable one. I understand the idea behind Tether, but IMO I'd rather just own dollars and not some representation of them which could go *poof* if the exchange goes down or whatever.
but I personally still hold tether for long-term investment.
You've got to be shitting me. Seriously? That's
worse than keeping your money under your mattress.
And I do not advise you to keep your savings on the stock exchange, at any time can come up with any reason for freezing assets or can happen hacking.
Hacking and freezing of funds on a stock exchange? You people are just talking out of your asses here. I think you mean "crypto exchange". If you don't know the difference, then please don't post nonsense.
