Tether Executives Said to Face Criminal Probe Into Bank Fraud
A U.S. probe into Tether is homing in on whether executives behind the digital token committed bank fraud, a potential criminal case that would have broad implications for the cryptocurrency market.
- Of course.. just as bears lose grip - more fud, kept in the back pocket for desperate occasions - until now.shapesalad
- when the DOJ comes in its getting real.neverscared
- Also an odd thing: have you noticed the supply of Tether falling short recently? Hmmm wondering where that went since Tether NEVER burns coins lolgrafician
- manipulated markets are a hell of a thing
https://pbs.twimg.co…neverscared - Saturday, the volume of $1 Tether coins being swapped for $1 USDC coins:
— 71 million
This morning, a criminal case against Tether became a reality.neverscared - Today’s volume of $1 Tether coins being swapped for $1 USDC?
— 286.26 million (!!!)
Things are about to get interesting....neverscared

He seems sad ofc because Sam & Co. just reduced leverage to just 20x and will need to close up shop soon or at least cut all the bullshit

"On Monday Hong Kong time, FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried took to Twitter to address concerns that access to high leverage by retail traders had led to undo market volatility.
1) An effective margin system is integral to an efficient economic system.
There are limits to everything, though.
— SBF (@SBF_Alameda) July 25, 2021
Bankman-Fried said that while there is certainly a place for margin trading, and the majority of those that used it are professional investors, it was time to curb access to it. Now, the greatest allowed leverage would be 20x. "
Binance followed suit, Uniswap cleaning house of scammy tokens and not to mention serious BTC outflows from exchanges in the last hours
Sure, BTC price got pumped again (serious selling from China) and holders seem happy, but they will get real silent real soon lol
- Oh and let's not forget: "TSLA reports a Bitcoin-related impairment of $23MM"grafician
- Oh and one more: "Bitcoin Tumbles After Amazon Denies It Will Accept Crypto In 2022"grafician
- Yup, it's at $38Kgrafician
- No, wait, make that $37Kgrafician
- btc outflows from exchanges = good thing.shapesalad
- Not if you're in China...grafician
- talking to youself mate_me_
- @me mate, crypto is zero sum game, you practically pulled some cash from someone else's wallet to put your downpayment on that flat lolgrafician
- < all this, this is fear in the system realising The Man will drop the hammer on them real soon lol
Crypto can't survive market regulationgrafician - 40_me_
- I think it can survive.monospaced
- Regulation would be the one thing that would very much legitimize it for big/real business cases. I believe that was always the intent.monospaced
- But there are no big/real business cases. Crypto offers nothing tangible for anything, besides speculation.grafician
- There's something to be said for the blockchain technology in general for certain transactions beyond just currency. Obviously.monospaced
- @me 39?grafician
- @mono there isn't
we had distributed ledgers before bitcoin, they were useless
crypto is old concepts repackaged and sold to suckers
Zero real utilitygrafician - Interesting take. I have heard quite the opposite from the Fortune 500, but what do I know right? I only work for a top accounting firm :)monospaced
- I'm trying to say, in a nice way, that there ARE business cases and uses for blockchain tech that are very much being taken seriously at the top. okay?monospaced

"New Report shows crypto users worldwide has doubled from 106 million in January to 221 million in June."
No wonder bitcoin is spiking again, dumb fucks
- I thought you said it was over?monospaced
- Yes it is, but MAGA retards still think Trump won...grafician
- ^They practically even buy his worthless coins, it's amazinggrafician
- I sincerely doubt this has a correlation with trump supporters.monospaced
- Let's be honest here. It's not really "over" if crypto users WORLDwide has doubled this month. C'mon.monospaced
- I mean, this year. :)monospaced
- The need need to launder money has not diminishedGnash
- @mono yeah man, that was a hint damn, so you could understand the level of damage
it's called dumb money anywaygrafician - define "user" opaque user base from opaque exchanges... not denying the get rich quick day trader mentality might have jumped the numbers...jonny_quest_lives
- So Bitcoin spiking and users doubling is a sign of it being over and it’s just dumb people investing? And you call me an idiot?monospaced
- @jonny the same dumb money split go into robinhood and meme stocks
Bitcoin as a project died years ago, this is only speculation frenzygrafician - We had here in RO a big ponzi scheme in the '90s called Caritas - everything about crypto mimics that! The human psychology never changesgrafician
- @mono I call you an idiot for not directly reading between the lines sometimes
You clearly are a well spoken and smart man any other daygrafician - also why tf would I ever call you or anybody else here an idiot maliciously instead of amicablygrafician
- Each to their own, but BTC all the way for me.shapesalad
- grafician - try this: Open an account with a crypto exchange, put €100 on, set a limit buy order for BTC at a price of €30k..shapesalad
- ...don't check your account for 1 year... come back here and post a screen grab of how much your €100 is now worth.shapesalad
- and for a control put €100 in the best savings account your bank offers. compare the difference.shapesalad
- @shape nah bro, I can trade a 100 account to over a bitcoin's value in under a year lolgrafician
- @mono might be pretty close to the maga https://www.cnet.com…neverscared
- i saw a pic from jack maller from strike with a maga hat.... so thats makes one maga boy ceo already.neverscared
- Considering MAGA is only half of the US, I don't see any corellation between them and the WORLDWIDE crypto user base.monospaced
- Most of the cunts don't have a pot to piss in, let alone the brain cells to figure out how to trade cryptocurrencies.monospaced
- @mono MAGA is probably 10-15% the rest up to around 30% are "normal" conservatives, 30% democrats and 30-40% don't caregrafician
- ^These numbers persist in pretty much any other democracy. It's NEVER just two sides, 50-50grafician
- omg, you're missing my point!monospaced
- Americans aren't the only ones investing in crypto. It's a GLOBAL thing. jesus.monospaced
- My point was your comparison with MAGA won't hold. Investing in crypto is rather dumb. Sure, you can trade CFDs over the weekend, btc will drop to $37Kgrafician
- you said the spike was MAGA retards, that was your one and only point, which you've been arguing for some reasonmonospaced
- Your other point is that it's dead, despite it spiking. Weird.monospaced
- I made no comparison to MAGA, so I have no idea what you're talking about. YOU brought up MAGA, not me.monospaced
- No, because you clearly can't read between the lines, how is English your native language?! damngrafician
- excuse me?monospaced

The wheels keep falling off the Binance bus. Get your money off the exchange while you still can.
- Wheels are off, but then train wheels are on and Binance is now running along regulatory rails.shapesalad
- And this... is a good thing. Big money, mass adoption, only comes with regulation.shapesalad

- @mono you didn't even know how trading works, you own a few stocks but you lose thousands on a day when all the signs tell you to sellgrafician
- #Bennn I'll ask you again in a year buddy how's your "investment" going lolgrafician
- @mono you're what? 20 years older than me but you don't even know common shit, get an encyclopedia, stop trolling QBNgrafician
- lol, what a fucking condescending fuck you are, insisting you know everthing and nobody else doesmonospaced
- I don't "own a few stocks" you clown. You don't know shit about me, stop pretending.monospaced
- What "common shit" do I not know?monospaced
- these are facts, you don't add nothing to the discussing you just inserted yourself into all my posts and comments
Say something relevant or get offgrafician - and yes I know everything, I just use some simple tools like some books, a browser, some search engines, you guys know zero shit about shitgrafician
- then you have the nerve to call me condescending LOLgrafician
- I'm not being condescending. That's all you buddy.monospaced
- you showed you don't k shit about crypto/trading/space...
stop damngrafician - lol YOU were calling me condescending because I know a little more about stuff?
LOL mono buddy, go homegrafician - If you know something more, please add to the discussions, that's welcomed, if not, please shut up, you're really dullgrafician
- You also need English comprehension lessons, crypto, trading, space, design and a dozen other things I gather from your ignorant commentsgrafician
- @grafician ... i dont understand what you're trying to say. You dont seems to know enough about Helium mining as I see. Let's pass.Bennn
- The calcul is pretty simple, its impossible to lose money here. Miners are reselling for 6 to 8x the price.Bennn
- If my mining journey doesnt work I will sell my miner... So yeah, ask me in a year how my shit going ;-))Bennn
- i have a friend mining helium and told me he paid off the miners in a couple months. he has covid atm from sleeping with his ex so watch out for that :Dkingsteven

Does anyone know or use Strike? To send money or Bitcoin?
Asking for a friend...- wow. there are SOOO many of these companies now. the non-bank bank is all over the place. i saw ads for another new one in subway just yesterdayhardhat
- Yes, for me who is grown up with traditional banking and banking secrecy it's difficult to find one I would entrust my money.Longcopylover
- Strike is the one who onboarded El Salvador. Not available for me in Europe yet, but I really want to try it. Should become a top playerESKEMA
- try it out and post your findings :)ESKEMA
- Isn't this the scam they tried to pull on El Salvador? I posted about this before here bro, stay outgrafician
- https://www.qbn.com/…grafician
- do you know that you can send bitcoins using software wallets on both sides?uan
- software wallets, the apps are there to buy crypto or to trade crypto and also hold wallets for you. but you can move btc to any wallet through the network.uan
- is that hypothetic or you're currently using it?grafician
- I use it. to receive btcs or to pay in btc. apps only because they give you interest on the btcs you hold there.
or other apps for gambling.uan - Are you in El Salvador? or the US?
Because that only works currently in those 2 countries and uses USDT from what I've readgrafician - so what exactly BTC are you sending and receiving?grafician
- but it's good to have a wallet you control yourself. you can also get hardware wallets and put them in a safe if you are really wealthy and paranoid.uan
- It's actually a scam: https://davidgerard.…grafician
- I wasn't talking to your salvador whatever rant. that's different thing.
I was talking about sending btc to someone around the planet.uan - using the lightning network? that's something else entirely
so, do you want to discuss Strike?grafician - he said you don't need strike. you didn't read, assumed he was defending strike, asked two questions, then complained he wasn't talking about strike? incrediblekingsteven
- So you like to talk about crypto scams, alright my bad, will leave you boys to it lolgrafician
