>not bother with a pesky thing like proof

This is pretty hilarious coming from someone defending a company that refuses to produce a legitimate audit. (no, an "attestation" is not an audit)

If all they're doing is sitting on a giant big pile of cash and treasury bonds, it should be absolutely trivial to provide proof: here's where those assets are deposited.

If you can’t see the value in an attestation, you’re not familiar with the topic.

And I’m not “defending” anything other than the basic idea that when one has not proven something, one cannot claim it as true. Nobody has been able to prove Tether is a scam, so it isn’t.

This right here is amazingly revealing of the mindset that leads fools to become separated from their money. What's the opposite of caveat emptor?
