Just imagine what's going to happen when there's a bank run on Tether.

Tether FAQ: "Unfortunately, Tether has decided to stop serving U.S. individual and corporate customers altogether. As of January 1, 2018, no issuance or redeeming services will be available to these users."[1]

If there's a significant net outflow from Tether to USD, there's a good chance the whole thing comes apart.

Remember, with Tether, there is no potential upside. If you're not using it for something within days, don't keep any money in it.
