That Michael Saylor tweet is hilarious:

"#Bitcoin is a swarm of cyber hornets serving the goddess of wisdom, feeding on the fire of truth, exponentially growing ever smarter, faster, and stronger behind a wall of encrypted energy."

Certainly it's that, and not rampant Tether printing / fraud / lack of exit off-ramps / institutionaland retail investor ignorance

Ok, so I've heard that tether printing story over and over. Is there a reputable source for these claims?
Any that isn't in the crypto press.

If you want Tether explained, this is the best article I've seen (I wish I'd written it).

This is a year old; it's only gotten more blatant since then.

The NYAG's inquiry has been slowed by COVID, but is grinding on.

Thanks that was very informative.
