So Tether depegs, tries to slowly recover it's price, only to drop back down to a low of $0.9987. Suddenly there is an unexplainable burst of $13.67 TRILLION trading volume on Tether, & it's price miraculously rebounds & is back on track towards it's peg. Just a glitch? Sure๐Ÿง

Why won't journalists just read the rejection letters for Bitcoin ETFs by SEC. They clearly state that the reason is due to market manipulation, with Tether being the main culprit. Sometimes the simplest answer is the right one: ETFs don't get approved for manipulated markets.

Binance-peg BUSD is issued by Binance, not by Paxos. It is pegged to BUSD, which is issued by Paxos. But now BUSD is no longer allowed to mint, due to actions against Paxos. CZ distances Binance from BUSD, to imply its a Paxos issue. Confused yet? This is the BNB ecosystem.

We don't even need a Tether audit anymore. Tether's biggest customer is behind bars. Get his receipts for his payments to Bitfinex for the $39B Tether. Once it's revealed that $39B wasn't sent, the world will know Tether is still not fully backed, & crypto's 2020 pump was fake.

I estimate Binance actually owns closer to 93M BNB, but as high as 109M BNB. The reason for the range is that wallet 3 is a burn wallet (excluded) from circ supply, but wallet 5 is the BNB contract owner wallet, with a manual burn that is included in the circ supply (16.4M BNB)

This is an excellent point. Paxos has been specifically targeted for BUSD, but not their own Pax dollar. Look at the bigger picture. FTX collapsed, & now suddenly the regulators are coming after Binance. It's almost as if a co-conspirator of Binance is informing on them.

@ramahluwalia SEC is obviously implying (PAXO) BUSD and Binance & Co are a cartel or unified ecosystem. Notice there are no mentioning of "PAX dollar"? i.e. 3rd party selling MGM casino chips to be used in MGM casinos make the 3rd party liable to all casino regulations and enforcement.
