  • 20B circulation with nothing backed
  • No proof of funds either
  • Banking partner on the Bahamas
  • Lawsuits are pending

i wouldn't say nothing backed. not fully backed, sure. Tongue

banking in shady jurisdictions behind shell companies ("like criminals" as giancarlo once said) is how they keep withdrawals flowing. it's a dirty job but someone's gotta do it.

i wouldn't pay the lawsuits any mind. lots of frivolous BS there, just like the lawsuits against other exchanges.

I am worried about my funds in USDT. I think I have to move to USDC or BUSD.

that's reasonable. unfortunately for me, USDT is the only liquid stablecoin on some of the exchanges i use. USDC just isn't big enough yet.[/list]
