Someone asked this in their Github. They have yet to respond. I dont know how they will wriggle their way out of this. The $31m was issued directly from Bitfinex, no money was ever sent out from this address.

These faggots are definitely being investigated.

XRP is the only coin that consistently holds its USD value during BTC moves. It has gradually increased it's floor over the last 4 months during the BTC run with a few bumps a long the way. If you get it around $0.22-0.25 then you'll be fine and won't suffer the sort of double drops (both BTC and USD drops) that every other coin experiences.

Since someone "hacked" the Treasury and essentially minted unbacked USDT amounting to 30M, there would be a negative balance in the "Transparency" page. What can we infer from this?

a) Maybe the Transparency page is legit, and because there was unbacked USDT that was minted from the Treasury, which reflected in the liabilities portion of the Transparency page. This increase in liabilities did not have a corresponding increase in assets, thus the apparent conclusion is that Tether only mints USDT if it is sufficiently backed and the Transaprency page is automatically linked to the minting and deposit of assets/USD.

or the conspiracy laden, b) All of this is orchestrated by Tether/Bitfinex so they will look legit in the eyes of the public.

To word it better, assuming the Transparency page is legit:
The asset portion will only increase if there is an actual fiat USD deposit to Tether Inc.
The liability portion will only increase if there is issuance of USDT from the Treasury.

Hack happens and 30M is minted, thus liabilities increase as per the Transparency page. Since no USD was deposited to Tether Inc., the assets portion is stagnant, thus causing a negative amount in Equity. I'm saying this supports an argument that the Transparency page is legit. Or if you are a conspiracy theorist, its all an act, which using
Occam's razor, is the unlikely reason.
