Biggest counterparty is probably Tether in this Alameda collapse.
Cumberland might also be in contagion.

Tether can’t go to zero, they got 55% in Us treasuries (paying a yield) + 5% in rrp (paying a yield) + 10% cash + other money market instruments + a bunch of equities (that might be distressed) and 8% in crypto
So worst case it’s worth 70cent, it cannot go to zero

70 cent can easily start another panic selling. Even 80-90 cent would do it.

You forget the link between tether and bitfinex.

They're running the same scam ftx/alameda were doing and likely onboarding all sorts of dodgy shit (drug money).

Imagine trusting a largely unknown operation with no public audit managing 69 bil that is comprised of former child actors, paedophiles, electronic salesmen, dentists and the like.. Seriously?

If FTX was universally trusted fell why the flying fuck are you so confident in tether.. the black hole of crypto?

just like you could withdraw your funds in time from ftx, you can convert now your shit from usdt to something else
is that hard to do?
if they are solvent they will be fine and gain trust
if they are not, you will take some price dump due to contagion event but most of your funds will be fine cause you took self-custody
wanna cause a bank run?
you are welcome, crypto.com and nexo are very likely insolvent

Retard. Biz is not one person. There is plenty of people who knew how LUNA worked, that Celsius was retarded. They couldn't have know just how idiotic Celsius was but the idea of putting your money into a centralized black box where they invest it for you is like the opposite of crypto, its a trad bank. Only retarded newfags would have used it. Like only retards hold tether, but the FUD about it is stupid.
