Well that's gold reserves not USD for USDT

BrokeButFabulous12

Monero seems to be the only fully private thing, so it will never be the top thing because nobody in the traditional financial sector will allow it. Look at all the onramp cexes, even binance eu removed USDT last month, because of regulation. You still have to use on and off ramp to get your money in or out. If you use monero, bank might freeze your account completely as it comes from unregulated private exchange where they dont know if the actual fiat money is your profit you swapped to monero from some solana memecoin or if the money came from your local crimeboss. Same like if youd walk into a bank and want to deposit half a milion of euros in small banknotes, for sure it will raise no questions...

The amount borrowed against your BTC can be used to earn in Defi, this strategy lets you stay exposed to BTC while still earning with the borrowed funds like USDT. I would ask chat gpt how to use this strategy and earn a living wage.

The swap was from BTC to USDT. I originally had my funds in Crypto.com, but I withdrew and began to diversify into different platforms and wallets for security, so as not to have everything in one place. In that context, Changelly seemed to me to be a convenient and fast option (integrated into Exodus) to make a specific change. I didn't imagine I would end up with my funds blocked. I know that CEXs can hold funds under certain regulations, but in my case I already completed KYC, provided documentation of legitimate origin (holding since 2020), and there was no suspicious activity. There is no clear justification for having me more than 20 days without an effective response. I agree with you: many of these “rules” only end up affecting the legitimate user, while institutionalized theft is disguised as “compliance.” Thanks for sharing your vision.

Sending BTC to a USDT wallet on bitmex 😭

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Tether minted $1 billion USDT on the Tron network, increasing its total issuance to 12 billion since January. This significant minting reflects growing demand for stablecoins and could signal bullish market sentiment, particularly for Bitcoin. Historically, large Tether issuances have coincided with price surges. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index is trending toward Greed, indicating optimism. However, the impact depends on whether the newly minted USDT reaches exchanges and the broader market quickly. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

This question doesn't really make sense, especially without being able to name specific chains. They are important, but the context and specificity matter. If you mean, how much does a chain's implementation of native assets matter, then it does a bit. Both Paypal and one of the institutions tokenizing RWA's (can't remember which one, was either Societe Generale, Standard Chartered, or Franklin Templeton I believe) noted that Solana's token extensions were features that helped them choose Solana. On the flipside, a chain like Cardano has more restrictions on native assets and it has prevented the major stablecoins USDC and USDT from being issued there natively.

What the scammer is doing: They are telling you to buy EOS (a cryptocurrency) and send it to their wallet. They pretend you have to include a memo (a number like 99119741) when you send it. They lie and say you will get your money back plus a bonus after "processing." --- The truth: When you send EOS with a Memo to their wallet, you are sending your real money to them. You will NOT get anything back. Once you send it, it's gone forever. The "memo" is just how they track your payment. It's not something magical or needed for a bonus. --- Proof it’s a scam: They mention people making "$300" easily — this is fake. Scammers fake "success" stories in the comments. They use fake screenshots showing fake money being "earned." They try to make the steps sound "easy" and "risk-free" — this is a typical trick. They encourage you to send real crypto to their account — that's how they steal from you. They offer to take small amounts first to make you "trust" them, then scam you when you send a bigger amount. Notice they give their Bitcoin, USDT, and Litecoin wallet addresses in the comments to collect tips — more theft.

I had the corect Landwolf, but the USDT, that's another story

RoidedStoic

What's the current cheapest chain to transfer USDT?

Worth-Guess3456

I think Strike is only good if you live in the US. Not outside, because there are too many restrictions and fees : i can only buy with a debit card, each debit card transaction has a 0.99$ fee, + if not DCA i have a fee depending on the amount i pay (between 0,8 to 1,2% of the amount), no possibility to have a USDT account in Strike, and huge spread price.  I'm investigating which platform is better for me outside the US. But it's not Strike for sure...

Worth-Guess3456

It depends where you live with Strike. Outside the US, you can only buy Btc with a debit card (no bank wire or other option) with a 0.99$ fee whatever the amount on the debit card. Plus impossible to have USDT on a Strike account to avoid to buy each time through the debit card.  Then fees between 0.8 to 1.2% depending on the amount you purchase (unless you do DCA). Then another ridiculous fee by the "market maker" when you buy Btc which is not at price market but much higher (Strike sells Btc around 1000$ more than the official price market). I have to investigate which other platform is better for me with their fees.

Shtoinkity_shtoink

I don’t monitor market caps but clearly people here do… does USDT jump around the leaderboard? Like in a single day money moves into various tokens… does it fall down or does it always stay in the top 5? I was shocked to see it so high but I suppose it makes sense

JeopardyQBot

i feel like you're asking about the fees not the spread. the spread isn't constant it's the lowest sell orders on the book that can fill your order. but the fees are fixed and for BTC/USDT futures they're 0.02% for limit and 0.05% for market. you can see them here https://www.binance.com/en/fee/futureFee $100 x 100 = $10,000 position $10,000 / 94,298.65 = 0.106 BTC 0.106 * (94,308.65 - 94,298.65) = $1.06 profit without fees fees if both limit orders: $10,000 * (0.02/100 * 2) = $4 profit = -$2.94 does that make sense?

JeopardyQBot

yeah or you can see it on the side of the page on normal trading pages like here https://www.binance.com/en/trade/BTC_USDT?type=spot

JeopardyQBot

you can check yourself just look at the binance orderbook, you don't need an account to view it. right now it's like $0.01 for spot BTC/USDT but volatility is usually low on the weekend

tldr; An Ethereum user lost $700,000 in USDT to an address poisoning scam, where scammers create wallet addresses resembling legitimate ones to deceive victims. The attacker sent a small transaction to mimic a Binance wallet the victim had just interacted with, leading the victim to send a large sum to the scammer. The funds were quickly converted to DAI to avoid freezing. Experts advise double-checking full wallet addresses and avoiding reliance on truncated or transaction history addresses to prevent such scams. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Fantastic-Airline710

No. People are slowly starting to realize it's old and dead technology. It'll soon lose its second spot - which it has held for what feels like an eternity - to USDT. mEth heads will seethe and cope by saying "yeah but that's a stablecoin and not an actual crypto" and then XRP will take over and it'll forever be out of the top 3. I can even see it fall out of the top 10 in a few years. It's done. Dead and buried.

Sparkskatezx3

Hey @anon67-, in my experience, sending USDT from your cold wallet to Coinbase first makes sense since Coinbase supports USDT and USD conversions easily. Once on Coinbase, you can convert USDT to USD and withdraw to your bank account. ACH transfers usually take 1-2 business days but are cheap; instant transfers are faster but come with fees. Just watch for timing and fees, and yes, avoiding delays or locked funds is best done through regulated exchanges like Coinbase. Hope this helps!

Mandatory "USDT to $2" comments.

Hi Many banks in certain countries, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, have very strict policies regarding cryptocurrency transactions, which can make both investing and cashing out challenging. As you rightly pointed out, in many cases, banks view incoming crypto-related funds as high risk. Given your circumstances, here are a few general suggestions to consider: • Peer-to-Peer (P2P) platforms: Services like Binance P2P, Paxful, or others allow you to sell BTC directly to other individuals, often using local payment methods. Make sure to use escrow services and reputable traders to stay safe. • Crypto-friendly banks or neobanks: Some users choose to open accounts with banks in nearby countries or online-only banks that are more crypto-friendly (where possible). • Stablecoins: Some users hold stablecoins like USDT, USDC, or DAI instead of cashing out immediately. These can sometimes be easier to move around until a better cash-out opportunity is found. • Long-term HODL approach: Since you mentioned you don’t plan to sell soon, continuing DCA and securely holding your BTC for the long term might be the best strategy for now.

### **1. What Is Address Poisoning?** **Address poisoning** is a scam where an attacker creates a wallet address that looks very similar to a legitimate one — often the first and last few characters match. They then "poison" your transaction history by sending a tiny transaction (often $0) from the fake address, hoping you'll mistakenly copy and paste it later. --- ### **2. How This Scam Unfolded (Step-by-Step)** #### **Step 1: The Target Plans to Send Funds** The victim wanted to send **$699,990 USDT** to a known address, presumably a Binance deposit address: ``` Correct: 0x2c11a3a5f7...b1cd9c0b ``` #### **Step 2: A Small Test Transaction** They wisely tested first by sending **$10** to the correct address. This is good practice, but it also made their intention public on the blockchain — now visible to anyone monitoring the wallet. #### **Step 3: Attacker Poisons the History** Within **30 seconds**, an attacker sends a $0 transaction **from a spoofed address** that closely resembles the real one: ``` Fake: 0x2c1134a046...c7989c0b ``` The beginning and ending characters are similar to the real address. This address now appears in the victim’s transaction history. #### **Step 4: Victim Sends to the Wrong Address** Later, the victim checks their wallet's transaction history to copy the address again (a common mistake), **but they copy the attacker’s spoofed address instead**. #### **Step 5: Loss of Funds** They send **$699,990 USDT** to the wrong address — the attacker’s. This transaction is irreversible. The attacker now owns the funds. --- ### **3. Technical Highlights** - **Transaction Hashes:** Provide proof and transparency of what happened. - **Zero-Dollar Transaction:** The scammer paid the gas fee just to get their address into the victim’s history. - **Same Prefix/Suffix Address:** Humans tend to verify only the first 4 and last 4 digits of a wallet address — attackers exploit this. --- ### **4. Preventing Address Poisoning** - **Never copy addresses from transaction history.** Use saved contacts or a trusted source. - **Double-check the full address**, not just the beginning and end. - Use **ENS** (Ethereum Name Service) or similar human-readable addresses where possible. - **Bookmark trusted addresses** in your wallet or keep a verified address list offline.

Hi there! Good questions: the answer to the stable question is linked in the tl;dr in the beginning of the post, but basically since USDT was included in the 2019 Top Ten Experiment, I included on stable in subsequent years to allow for a fair comparison between the Portfolios On DOGE, I buy every year on 1 Jan. DOGE didn't start a year in the Top Ten until 1 January 2023. As for tit outperforming everything else, it currently is not in the lead in any of the Top Ten Portfolios I'm tracking that contains DOGE (2023-2025). Question for you: what Island are you on? Is it nice? Can I visit? :)

What about USDT?

Zealousideal_Rain_79

What is the best place to stake USDT/USDC for a 10-15% APR?

JivanP

Gold's price and paper gold's price were never intrinsically the same. It was the longstanding reputable promise of those issuing gold promissory notes that they were immediately redeemable for actual gold that meant they were, in practice, equal, because these promises had not been defaulted on at the time. Nothing of the sort is true for the likes of Bitcoin tracker funds — who at the investment firm offering the fund would you contact in order to convert your shares in the funds into the equivalent amount of actual bitcoin? Even fiat-based stablecoins like USDT and USDC are not trusted in this way; their price fluctuates relative to the fiat currency they are based on. Indeed, as soon as the banks stopped keeping their promise to convert notes to real gold on demand, a free-floating market for gold priced in terms of these promissory notes naturally emerged. That is, gold immediately became more valuable than paper gold. Eventually, economies broke away from a gold standard. The likes of smart contracts like Wrapped BTC on the Ethereum network are fundamentally quite different, because there isn't just a promise that you have to take on faith, whose reputation you're relying on. Instead, there's a cryptographic, programmatic, mathematical assurance that the promise will actually be adhered to, without exception. That is, you don't need to trust; you can verify.

Shaykh_Hadi

Because it’s cheap to transact using banking apps etc. I’m not sure what the point is exactly. If the US dollar becomes backed by Bitcoin, it will last. USDT and USDC are pegged to the dollar. They require either payment apps that accept them or knowledge of the cryptocurrency space. So unless integrated with banking apps or debit/credit cards, most people won’t use them. In either case, people will use whatever is easiest and usually what they can do on their phone or card without taking additional steps or learning about blockchains.

Slick424

If redflags would matter, USDT would not be in 3th place.

g2kone

I mean, there are many use cases ? You guys never really used eth I guess. Simple example, I wanna buy a new car, I go on AAVE, I put some wBTC or wstETH in collateral, I borrow USDT and I can buy it. I’m still generating interests on my ETH (or my collateral) while being able to borrow usd.

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; USDC is projected to near a $61 billion supply by 2025, driven by growing institutional demand and regulatory clarity, outpacing USDT's growth. Circle's transparent reserve practices and potential IPO have bolstered confidence among regulated institutions in the U.S. and EU. While Ethereum dominates stablecoin hosting with $130 billion, USDC's appeal in decentralized finance and compliance-focused environments highlights a shift in market preferences. This trend underscores the increasing importance of regulatory alignment in stablecoin adoption. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

My avg price should be 65100£ , but now apparently is more like 67-68k which isn’t too bad but it hurts to watch how they manipulate macroeconomics. What I was thinking is you could just buy USDT with Euros, which means you get more USD, and when usd comes back up which eventually probably will (not guaranteed short-term , it can take 1-2-3 years or more) will mean you have more USD , so when it comes back up, you sell more USD for Euros , which means you’d be in profit from 2 actual trades , BTC/USD and USD/EUR. But that’s macroeconomics that needs better timing and follow the news and market . More of a short-term profits that is. If you’re long-term investor, you shouldn’t care much , cus eventually Trump will be dead and all good in the hood ^^

I run a Lightning node, but also have multiple lightning wallets, one of them (Speed, is custodial lamentably) has support for Taproot assets, which allows me to pay for USDT invoices over Lightning, which is a lifesaver when people accept stablecoins only (the good thing is that I pay in sats directly). I also use Bitrefill a lot, and at least half of my videogame library has been bought using Bitcoin either via Bitrefill giftcards or G2A direct buy.

Maleficent_Sound_919

Just so people understand how insane this is If you are european but trade in USDT Let say you sold the top in December for a cool $160k At the time that was worth : $160k x 0.98 = €156.8k Let say you did not exchange this but waiting and bought the bottom of the BTC drop $75k $160k / $75k = 2.1333 BTC Price has gone up now to $87k a nice 16% gain You now have : 2.1333 x $87k = $185.5k But exchange rate is now 0.88 (thanks trump) $185.5k x 0.88 = $163.24k $163.24k / $156.8k = 1.041 Which is a 4.1% gain instead of a 16% gain thanks to the dollar devaluating...

Maleficent_Sound_919

So the USD dropped -10% in value in last couple of months Most of price is in USD and most of us trade in USDT or some other stable coins. So we lost 10% of our "buying power" right? So $75000 lowest price would need to be $82500 to make up for this USD value drop to be breakeven? Or am I missing something

PACA.finance. They do concentrated liquidity farming for you. You’ll earn fixed 0.33% daily (120% APR) on your USDC or USDT. Your investment is locked for 250 days, but you get your money returned after the lock, and there are options to withdraw earlier if you so choose. The devs are doxxed and well-respected in DeFi. Ignore the likely ignorant downvotes and claims that it’s a scam or ponzi. It’s neither, but it is a great place to invest a portion of one’s risk capital.

I think Cardano is not getting any traction because there are cheaper and faster alternatives. Cardano is one of the slowest smart contract blockchain in terms of both block time and finality, and is pretty expensive compared to others as aswell (except maybe Ethereum, though Ethereum has been pretty cheap recently; of course, it is not saying much either). This is sad given that Cardano had an entire bear market to scale, yet did nothing significant. Leios is still TBD and Hydra has no major project despite being live for a couple years. Cardano has low DeFi TVL given its MC. It does not support any major stablecoin (like USDT or USDC) natively, and stablecoin liquidity in general is low as well. What has Cardano done for Africa at all? Where are the DIDs for Ethiopian students to use? PS - GitHub activity can be flawed for measuring dev activity, as commits could contain non-code changes.

Don't trust a YouTuber, but you CAN experiment with bots and a tiny stake (of tokens or USDT, depending on the trading pair). I use Pionex.us as my main CEX (among others, but it's my fave) and use their ready-made bots often. There's no fee to use their bots, but there is a small grid fee (unlike some other CEXs, like Binance, which charges for the bots). There are hundreds of pairs with many combos of variables. You can stop a bot at any time. The Details view shows you everything that's going on, so no mystery. Haven't made much yet, but the markets have been down lately. The bots only buy and sell. They don't short. Again, only play around with a small amount to get the hang of it. The Martingale bots, for instance, are basically DCA, so pretty harmless. There's an ETH/BTC trading pair that earns BTC--it's fun. Of course, do your own research.

20 USDT won't change your life. Either you pick a bad coin and end up with 10 or even lower. Or you get lucky and make it 40 or more.

LogrisTheBard

He can't use the USDT to buy Polygon without having Polygon for gas unless he already has token approval and it's one of those async exchanges like CowSwap. This type of thing will be solved soon by Ethereum with account abstraction but for now it's a problem.

Ok-Western-5799

With just 20 USDT, I'd go for something with more upside potential. ETH is solid, but maybe look at EOS, it's rebranded to Vaulta, a bridge between TradFi and DeFi, and it's still near the bottom. It's worth a shot.

Neither_Scheme_6381

I’ve been in the same spot with small amounts like 20 USDT – it’s not much, but it can still be used smartly. That’s actually what pushed me to build an AI system that analyzes market data and helps make decisions — when to buy, when to wait, when to avoid noise. I’ve been testing it on smaller amounts, and it’s been performing well so far. ETH is a bit uncertain right now, might be worth holding off or waiting for a clearer signal.

jenya_

> How do they make money from this? Multi-signature wallet: > The catch is that the bait is set up as a multi-signature wallet. To authorize outgoing transactions in such wallets, approval from two or more people is required, so transferring USDT to a personal wallet won’t work — even after paying the “commission”.

ghostingtomjoad69

i think that's a bad idea. You are not a bank. So the reason interest is collected...is because of risk, risk of default. If i want to incur interest, you can do it with your USD bank savings account, or a bond fund...i had $10k in a bond fund, i might earn say $40 a month when it was almost 5% apr on a 10 year treasury bond (SNOXX at schwab). But trying to do that with bitcoin, with some 3rd party? I don't think that's a good idea. Now, i think a lot of my transactions are between bitcoin and a usdcoin that is paired with the $, maybe it's USDT tether. IIRC it might pay a tiny monthly interest rate tied to bonds. But posting up bitcoin so lendees can "borrow" your bitcoin and then pay some kind of passive interest...i can't get behind that, i think you would be at risk of losing your bitcoin.

Remove USDT and see what happens to BTC

tldr; Panama City will accept Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDC, and Tether (USDT) as payment for public services, including taxes, tickets, permits, and fees. The city's council passed a proposal enabling crypto payments without requiring new legislation. Mayor Mayer Mizrachi stated that banks will convert digital assets to fiat for government offices. This move aligns with global trends in crypto adoption, though Panama's national lawmakers have previously resisted broader crypto regulations. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

what is the cheapest way to swap ETH/USDT/BTC/LTC without an CEX? I used to use services like fixedfloat, is there anything better?

thewittypear

As recent as early 2024 I was buying alt coins with BTC because I didn’t understand USDC or USDT or really anything about BTC

tldr; Bank of America is lobbying Congress to pass legislation favoring banks as stablecoin issuers, aiming to limit non-banks like Tether and Circle. CEO Brian Moynihan is working with groups like the American Bankers Association to push for a fully reserved 'Bank of America coin.' This move could challenge non-bank stablecoin issuers, including Circle's USDC and Tether's USDT. Congress is considering bills like the GENIUS Act and STABLE Act, but Bank of America seeks exclusive rights for banks in stablecoin operations. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

"Bank transfer fees will be 250 USDT on this withdrawal. Payment in advance is required." Then "By law, please deposit 2500 USDT to pay the taxes on this withdrawal ..." Then "Oh! Sorry, you'll need to upgrade to a Tier 1 account to complete this withdrawal. Please deposit 0.4 Bitcoin to upgrade your account and proceed with the withdrawal." THERE IS NO BITCOIN THERE. IT'S A SCAM.

Coinbase: wire transfer your amount there. Then you can do advanced trade and swap USDC to USDT for a very very small fee. Stable coin trades are a lot cheaper than other currency trades.

Brandonva804

No you’re the moron. A simple google search will show Tether intergrates into and works alongside Bitcoin. Recently they added USDT. To take advantage of Bitcoins Lighting low costs. Tether is connected to Bitcoin working alongside it. And Tether has no regulations. You really don’t read lol.

Cryptocaller

I’m not sure what you mean by “Integrates”. Please explain that. USDT as well as USDC and every other stable coin are individual entities run by excitedly different companies, actual companies with CEO’s. Bitcoin has no CEO, no company to integrate with, and is entirely autonomously run by miners. Explain yourself, moron.

Hi everyone I'm looking for someone who can help me exchange my cash for your USDT in person!

MrHmuriy

The main tokens I keep on my hardware wallet are USDT and USDC. When bitcoin falls by 1%, tokens like $CAKE fall much harder. So I convert stablecoins to tokens on the DEX exchange when the price drops to the bottom and then convert back to stablecoins when they have increased in value. Thus, gradually the value of my portfolio increases without waiting for a strategic increase in the price of any specific tokens (For example, on February 2 I bought $CAKE at $1.3, on February 13 I sold it at $3.01, on March 11 I bought it at $1.5, on March 18 I sold it at $2.65, etc.).

Can you create a crypto account and buy USDT with fiat?

TripTryad

73.63% is the high on Tradingview if you use the BTC.D ticker. Of course things are going to vary depending on source, but I prefer to use tradingview for consistency. In any case using tradingview with: CRYPTOCAP:BTC.D*CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL/(CRYPTOCAP:TOTAL-CRYPTOCAP:USDC-CRYPTOCAP:USDT-CRYPTOCAP:DAI-GLASSNODE:BUSD_MARKETCAP) For the dominance minus many stables you get a high of 75.93 Dec 20th 2021. It should all be relative for the most part however. The real point is that we have some distance before we even hit the level we hit last cycle, so I assume theres more room for it to rise.

DookieMcCallister

For you? USDT

aman0557

Some are offering cash against USDT? Is it not good??

DaddyDogmeat

It's because BTC USDT is the most common trading pair You could pair it with anything else but because of USD international dominance most liquid markets are USDT This is completely inconsequential for the average UK btc holder as the BTC price volatility is much higher than USDvs GBP Anyway I hold low 6 figs in dollar pegged stable coins and I'm not bothered. I'm more worried about UK economy long term than US US dominance might be decreasing but fears of USA imploding are overblown The best companies in the world are still in US

Here, I followed your advice and asked ChatGPT. The results are fucking hilarious, as I said: https://chatgpt.com/share/67fe6e9a-345c-8007-a1ed-1d78b4e7db7d >### **1. Cross-Border Payments & Remittances** >- **Why it matters**: Traditional international money transfers are slow and expensive. >- **Crypto’s role**: Coins like **XRP (Ripple)** and **Stellar (XLM)** enable near-instant, low-fee transfers across borders. >- **Example**: **MoneyGram** and **Western Union** have piloted crypto-based transfers to reduce costs. Ok, digital cash. So it's a Paypal competitor using a token, got it. One use case. >### **2. Inflation Protection / Store of Value** >- **Why it matters**: In countries with hyperinflation (e.g., Venezuela, Zimbabwe), fiat currency rapidly loses value. >- **Crypto’s role**: People use **Bitcoin** or **stablecoins** (like USDC or USDT) to preserve wealth. >- **Example**: Citizens in Argentina and Nigeria are turning to crypto as a hedge against inflation. This is still the same use case. You're buying and hoarding the digital cash. >### **3. Financial Inclusion** >- **Why it matters**: Billions remain unbanked or underbanked. >- **Crypto’s role**: All you need is a smartphone and internet to access decentralized financial services. >- **Example**: In sub-Saharan Africa, mobile-based crypto wallets (like **BitPesa**) are giving people access to global finance. Poor people can get collateralized loans using the digital cash. Ok, sure, second use case. >### **4. Decentralized Finance (DeFi)** >- **Why it matters**: Traditional finance is full of intermediaries and barriers. >- **Crypto’s role**: DeFi platforms (e.g., **Aave**, **Compound**, **Uniswap**) offer lending, borrowing, and trading without banks. >- **Example**: Users can earn interest on crypto or take out loans against it instantly. This is the same use case above, just the opposite end of the transaction. One is a borrower, one is a lender. Still the second use case. >### **5. NFTs & Digital Ownership** >- **Why it matters**: Proving ownership of digital art, collectibles, music, and real estate is tricky. >- **Crypto’s role**: **NFTs** on blockchains like Ethereum create verifiable ownership records. >- **Example**: Artists sell music and art directly to fans via NFTs; games like **Axie Infinity** use NFT characters. Here we go, tokenizing real world assets like Real Estate. The worst use case for an immutable blockchain ever conceived. Here's your third use case, and it's horrendous. >### **6. Micropayments** >- **Why it matters**: Credit card fees make small transactions inefficient. >- **Crypto’s role**: Coins like **Bitcoin’s Lightning Network** or **Nano** allow instant, feeless microtransactions. >- **Example**: Websites reward users with sats (tiny Bitcoin units) for watching ads or participating in surveys. This is the same as the first use case. Digital cash. >### **7. Supply Chain Tracking** >- **Why it matters**: Consumers want transparency in sourcing, and companies want traceability. >- **Crypto’s role**: Blockchains like **VeChain** are used to track goods from source to sale. >- **Example**: Food safety, anti-counterfeit drugs, and luxury goods authentication. Haha, this one hits home. I'm sitting on a -80% on my VeChain buy, back when I had the same thought as OP - what is a real world use case for this stuff, and how can I invest in that? That led me to supply chain tracking, VeChain, look at all these partnerships they've got with Walmart China and Shanghai Gas, this is the wave of the future! We've got an enormous supply chain crunch with Covid, if this stuff actually helps supply chains, this should be rapidly deployed across industries and companies worldwide. And it just... didn't. Because the use case is clumsy and offers no benefit compared to existing systems. But this is still the third use case because it's tokenizing real world assets. The real world asset is just a package being shipped. The package tracking requires a tag to put it on the blockchain that's manufactured and managed by a central authority. Yet again showing that tokenizing real world assets is an unnecessary middle man that could be done with a company managing a centralized database. >### **8. Tokenized Real Estate and Assets** >- **Why it matters**: Real estate and investments have high barriers to entry. >- **Crypto’s role**: Tokenizing assets allows fractional ownership and easier trading. >- **Example**: Platforms like **RealT** tokenize real estate, letting users invest in rental properties with crypto. Oh god, there it is again. Tokenizing real estate, same as the third use case. My favorite! >### **9. DAOs (Decentralized Autonomous Organizations)** >- **Why it matters**: Traditional organizations are hierarchical. >- **Crypto’s role**: DAOs use tokens and smart contracts to allow community governance. >- **Example**: Protocols like **MakerDAO** let token holders vote on monetary policy. Ok let's make this a fourth use case. You can buy "shares" of governance of an organization using crypto. There are loads of questions as to why this has any utility beyond a traditional company that could take money from investors to buy a copy of the constitution or an NBA team, but that's neither here nor there. Sure, fourth use case. >### **10. Identity & Authentication** >- **Why it matters**: Digital identity is fragmented and easily stolen. >- **Crypto’s role**: Blockchain-based IDs are secure, self-sovereign, and interoperable. >- **Example**: **Civic** and **Worldcoin** offer blockchain-based identity verification. Ah yes, WORLDCOIN, the bastion of use case and stability. Once again tokenizing real world assets, except this time, it's your passport available to the public instead of your home. Perrrrrfect. So overall, we have four use cases: 1. Digital Cash 2. Borrowing & Lending 3. Tokenizing real world assets 4. DAO That's it? This shit has been around for 16 years and this is all we've fucking got? Which takes me back to my original point. It has one real use case - speculative investment. LINE GO UP. Buy low, sell high, like any other speculative investment.

ButterscotchUseful81

If USDT price drops is there a way to convert BTC to fiat without P2P.

ButterscotchUseful81

But the article I read stated unrealised loss , doesn’t that mean they were factoring in BTC too? I basically wanna know if BTC falls this month when will it recover ? I’m afraid if China dumps USDT how will we sell BTC ?

CryptoNerd_16

Do you know you can use Altcoins like $USDT, Binance Coin (BNB), and Cardano (ADA) for payments, which are very popular?  

Pretty_Computer_5864

Yeah, that sounds like a scam, like any exchange asking for a “verification deposit” *after* you’ve already deposited and traded is throwing up massive red flags. Legit platforms never ask users to send more money just to withdraw. Bitnorf being only days old with no reputation, and then suddenly requesting $850 USDT to “verify” your withdrawal? Classic exit scam move
