Predictably, the BTC/USDT market (on Binance) is showing an inflated price for BTC as people try and bail out. Elsewhere the price of BTC is falling. It's impossible to tell the real price anymore because, for the moment, both actions are cancelling each other out.



Looks like the last shakeout, not a big deal to anyone who didn't trust tether to begin with:

>"OAG does not seek lo enjoin or interfere with the orderly operation of Bitfinex or Tether' s legitimate businesses. if any. including orders by legitimate traders on the Bitfinex platform, or legitimate tether holders, to redeem their tethers for dollars. Indeed. protecting legitimate traders using the Bitfinex platform. and legitimate holders of tether. primarily those residing in New York, is why a preliminary injunction is necessary now to preserve the status quo pending the completion of OAG's investigation." https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/fbem/DocumentDisplayServlet...

Bitfinex doesn't accept US customers though?


Binance has other stablecoin markets. You can see the price just fine there.
