There is no possible way that USDT is backed one-to-one. It just isn't. If it were, it would have a simple audit trail that they would publish. They don't because it isn't. It's a scam that will at some point unravel, and everyone will lose their shirts because of "many good people" lol.
It's possibly backed greater than 1:1. Tether likely cleaned up their operations over the past few years, but the "Tether Truthers" are still anxious about fraud. Even more transparency is welcome of course.
> Cantor Fitzgerald CEO Howard Lutnick on CNBC:
> "I'm a big fan of this stablecoin called Tether...I hold their treasuries. So I keep their treasuries, and they have a lot of treasuries. They're over $90 billion now, so I'm a big fan of Tether."
