If someone pays bitfinix for tether, what makes this 'created'?
I dont use tether because it is fiat currency which is exactly why I bought Bitcoin- but I dont see the big deal either. Its easier than cashing out to USD.
Is tether real or fake? Who knows, I only trust Bitcoin.

If someone pays actual USD for tether than that's how it's supposed to work - tether puts the USD in the bank, that person gets the tokens. However if someone wants USDT for their BTC (or whatever) and tether whip up a bunch of USDT to satisfy that, then they are creating an unbacked token to buy other crypto currency with, inflating the market. > Is tether real or fake? Who knows That's the problem, they claim transparency, audits and all sorts of other stuff, but they're lies. So nobody knows. But if it is all fake, then fake money could represent a large proportion of the money flowing into cryptocurrencies.
