Crypto News – Tether vs. Ripple Controversy: What You Need to Know
Crypto News – CEO of Tether Paolo Ardoino has retaliated against CEO of Ripple Brad Garlinghouse for his recent remarks suggesting that the US government is targeting Tether, the largest stablecoin issuer globally. To dispel any confusion over possible U.S. agency action against the company, Ardoino took to social networking site X and he also criticized Garlinghouse for inciting panic regarding USDT. Given that Ripple is under investigation by the SEC and is attempting to introduce a rival stablecoin to Tether’s, Ardoino stated that Garlinghouse’s remarks were disingenuous.
According to the CEO of Tether, USDT is the stablecoin with the biggest market share, millions of users worldwide, and it has benefited bank customers in developing nations.
USDT proved over time to have strong price stability, highly liquid reserves, top tier custodians and profound compliance.
