Thats meaningless unless it's an audited by a top 4 firm.

  You mean like Earnst & Young who was just fined $100 million for overlooking cheating by their employees on the ETHICS portion of the CPA exam? I agree something is severely broken about Tether, but it’s also clear that auditing firms can be crooked, too. I would not trust an audit to expose Tethers shortcomings. After all, the auditors can only report on the documentation provided to them … they specifically do not determine the legitimacy or validity of the documents provided (iow, false documents are not vetted in any way). Remember WireCard’s fraud?

    If you’re arguing the auditing firms can be games and Tether can’t seem to pass an audit by them, that seems worse

  they have committed to being audited by a Top 12 accounting firm, which is laughable https://twitter.com/WatcherGuru/status/1538815060298063873 https://twitter.com/WatcherGuru/status/1538815060298063873

    Their audit has been forthcoming for over 5 years at this point. I wouldn't hold my breath. (Also note that attestation ≠ audit.)

      One only needs to look at the "signature" under the attestation doc to know its fraud.
