> How comes they're going after everybody but iFinex (Bitfinex/iFinex/tether/USDT)? From what I understand, the reason CFTC is involved is that bitcoin was ruled to be a commodity, and CFTC has authority over commodity derivatives. It's literally in the name. Tether on the other hand is what? Just a number. They don't have authority over betting on numbers.
