>New York officials, who originally began investigating Bitfinex in 2019, will receive quarterly reports on composition of Tether’s reserves for the next two years. The companies will end all trading activity with New Yorkers.
Didnt they already had dates set for publishing Audit results in January? and then without revealing anything they obtain a settlement? Show you the scale of money and what it can do. At $Trillions being printed per month they can buy anything.
There's nothing in the article that suggests that tether will be closed if they are not backed up 100%, so I guess it won't make any real change even if they are not.
This has been going on for years, and it seemed that nobody was able to force them to prove anything.
