there will be nothing to liquidate you fucking brainlet cuck. USDT would instantly be worth $0 and anyone holding it loses everything.

or may be 1 USDT will be 0.1 USDC
Christopher Rodriguez
yeah but peoples currently in USDT would panic buy anything they can while at the same time nobody will be selling 100K BTC or 1k link in the USDT pair is entirely possible if tether goes to zero it would be meaningless but what a sight to behold
Robert Morgan
yes because bitmex uses bitfinex prices.
Ian Bell
This right here is why it's good for bitcoin , once Tether is dead daytrading will happen in btc as it's the most stable of all cryptos. When btc falls 5% the rest fall 10% , when btc goes up 10% the rest go up 3%
Only usecase for tether is waiting between trades without worrying about banks.
Jose Kelly
Doesn’t a lot matter as to whether the tether prints were backed at all or only partially backed?
If it was printed out of thin air, then the Bitfinex parent company would have a lot of BTC to dump.
if the tether prints were legit customers but now the deposits aren’t fully backed, then BTC should pump as people sell tether for BTC
Jace Morales
