I understand why stablecoins exist, but doesn’t an operation like Tether go against the decentralization goal of “crypto”? The fact that the ecosystem has become dependent on these types of players is interesting to me. Why hasn’t the community demanded even basic transparency about their operations? It seems to be totally exempt from the pious expectations of other crypto projects.
