Someone need to turn on that tether printing machine. If four trillion tethers are printed, and without any fiat backing it, bitcoin can be artificially pumped, and the short positions will be crushed.
Dealing with scammers by scamming is cheap and counterproductive. The question -here like on the gold market- is why the physical market do not "unlink" from the paper market (with gold is partially unlinked because there is a price premium on physical, variable with time). I guess that the paper whales must operate on the physical market at the same time to keep some link between the physical and paper markets. If so, they can be owned on the "physical" market by buying and hodling, especially when there are huge fire sales courtesy of (((them))).
