RE: Tether (USDT) Cryptocurrency Risk vs Reward

Hey there @davidhay! Can you please explain why is tether tied to bitfinex? I m using bitfinex since december and I feel like it's the most trustful exchange out there, but I don't see any USDT market on bitfinex, they only work with crypto and fiat!

Thank you for your time!

"Documents leaked as part of the Paradise Papers cleared things up: The two entities share the same operators, Phil Potter and Giancarlo Devasini, the New York Times reported. Potter is chief strategy officer at Bitfinex and a director at Tether. Devasini is a director of both companies, according to Bloomberg."

Ok but do you have any clue of why they wont use USDT on bitfinex as a currency? That's what concerns me to be honest!
