Tether is only 2.3 billion in a market of more than 500 billion.

Think about it for a minute.

Tether is not intended to be speculative. There's supposed to be $2.3B actual fiat backing it.

vs crypto "market cap", which is hugely speculative. It's not an actual valuation, it's simply supply x price.

So yes, the collapse of Tether could have a hugely disproportionate effect on the whole crypto market if it's backed by little to nothing.

Tether might be a scam, quick sell your bitcoin for Tether! /bitfinexTraders

EDIT: I suppose you could transfer the tethers to an exchange that offered USD/USDT trading...  If the market is actually concerned about tether it is on that pair we should see panic selling I would imagine... current USD price on kraken at time of this post: $0.9899

Do you think theres enough fiat on the exchanges to cover 500 billion?

Do you think theres enough fiat in the entire world to cover the 1.2 quadrillion derivatives markets?

That's what I was about to comment. I mean if Tether has a problem, the rational thing is to dump tether => buy bitcoins => exit the exchange asap.

Obviously, demand for bitcoins should move btc price up as tether is dumped.

As many pointed out the timing couldn't have been better. I'll simply hold my coins. During these days I say to myself that 1 BTC is 1 BTC.
Our time has yet to come.

If Bitfinex and Tether blow up, I just don't care

People are in tether to avoid bitcoin. So a rational gambler would indeed buy bitcoins but would dump them later for cash.

Hey quick,

Someone wake up JJG so he can tell me again that there are no pre-planned, coordinated attacks on Bitcoin.

Pretty much my thinking ^^
I’m happy with my ‘HODL’ stash & this doesn’t worry me, it’s just a bit annoying. 1 bitcoin is still 1 bitcoin, I’m planning to HODL until around a year after the next halving any way so about 2021.

This is just a small speed bump on the way to the moon, besides who doesn’t think 1 bitcoin will be worth north of $50,000 at some point?

Good things come to those who wait.

Only the good die young. Or they get murdered
Our young Bitcoin is gaining too much traction in this world bound to old legacy sort of systems.
Torque, you know better than me that this will change.
Hold

News from Masterluc.

Daily volumes fall = bearish trend is weak. I still believe that the lower $10k will be bought ruthlessly.

More news from Masterluc.

My account on bitcointalk.org "masterluc" was compromised

So I'd suggest mistrusting anything Masterluc posts here.
