Wonder if the reason binance is pumping it's own stable coin and token is because they see the writing on the wall for tether. All the non cash exchanges got huge infusions of tether this morning while they were down.

Hammerite posted:it might replace tether in its purported role as a "stable coin", but will it replace tether's de facto role as a means for shady market participants to pump bitcoin's value? coinbase iirc is the relatively law-abiding cryptocurrency organisation that institutions are willing to keep at arm's length, as opposed to the other cryptocurrency orgs which they won't touch with a ten foot pole. So presumably coinbase's stable coin can't and won't fill that role. When tether disappears and there's nothing doing for bitcoin what tether currently does, what happens? who knows, but it will probably be stupid (and therefore funny) yeah, I'd guess it'll supplant Tethers, maybe even mostly instead of all the way, and I'm expecting that to stabilize bitcoin prices and keep it from going as close to zero as it most recently did. I don't really care if Tether craters (other than the laff returns) but it'd be an unalloyed good for butts to and a stable coin baked by billions of real investor dollars will probably help prevent that, unfortunately

I don't really care if Tether craters (other than the laff returns) but it'd be an unalloyed good for butts to and a stable coin baked by billions of real investor dollars will probably help prevent that, unfortunately If it does replace Tethers, it'll be temporarily. All these stablecoins are temporary, they just seem a lot less temporary than they really are because the American federal government is slow as molasses and none of this was a priority under the last administration. But at some point Coinbase/Centre are gonna get a call from the SEC or CFTC or DOJ or some other relevant federal acronym, and then a few minutes later they're gonna announce that they're no longer issuing USDC and urge every USDC holder to start redeeming their tokens. Because... junan_paalla posted:USD coin still isn't audited, they have attestations which are as good as paying someone to say "yeah the money's there". it literally can't be audited, because it would mean either admitting that they're issuing an unregistered security, or admitting that usdc holders don't actually have any claims towards the holdings 'backing' them, making them worthless. ... this is all true, and not just for USDC, but for any currency-"backed" stablecoin. At best, the issuer is acting in good faith and has the money and intent to redeem their tokens, but is in violation of American securities and banking laws. At worst, the issuer is like Tether, and they're violating a whole host of securities and banking laws in addition to having neither the means nor intent to redeem their tokens for dollars.
