Tether Limited and New York Office of the Attorney General Settles for $18.5 million
A relief for crypto and DeFi, Tether Limited, and the NYOAG has settled for $18.5 million. It took two years for this judgment to be made. The NYOAG alleges that Tether Limited, the official issuer of the USDT stablecoin, is complicit in committing fraud.
In their case, they argued that Tether Limited illegally lent Bitfinex $850 million in USDT to cover for Bitfinex losses suffered in the hands of a crypto-processor in 2018.
However, the loan has been repaid in full, and interest paid. This was a necessary step to ensure the continuity of Bitfinex’s operations. Bitfinex is one of the largest exchanges in the world. Together with Tether Limited, they are managed by iFinex.
From this case, it also emerged that USDT was not fully covered by cash as assumed. Instead, the coin is collateralized by among many assets cash, cash equivalents, and digital assets.
