Yang Mindao, founder of dForce: USDT has three major risks

星球日报讯 今天下午,Odaily星球日报全新辩论AMA【唱唱反调】正式上线。首期活动主题为:【USDT没毛病】VS【USDT不靠谱】,并邀请到六位嘉宾参与讨论。dForce创始人杨民道认为USDT目前存在三大风险: 最大的问题是透明度差和合规、监管的问题。如果不是因为美国的执法机构调查,大家就不会知道上次Bitfinex因为8.5亿美金被冻结,动用了7亿美金USDT的储备资产(内部关联公司拆借),导致USDT的储备金率从100%下降到75%。由于不透明的运作,这次事件之后,是否还有更多的资金挪用,这个我们是不知道的。 第二个风险是美国司法部和NYAG的调查,可能会让USDT的运营方需要承担高额的罚款甚至破产。如果Tether的发行方被落罪,无论是刑事还是民事,都可能面临高额罚款,这部分罚款也有可能会涉及USDT的储备。 第三个风险,是中国监管的清理。大家都知道USDT实际上是美金在中国市场的自由市场定价的产物,这个“自由”能维持多长时间,也是有很大不确定性的。
