Post is by: holle1997 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: https://www.kcex.com/exchange/BTC_USDT?inviteCode=Z3UQQS I wanted to share a quick summary of my experience with Kcex, a smaller crypto exchange I stumbled across last week. They’ve been running a KYC incentive campaign for new users — not some “free $100” gimmick, but more of a credit you can use for trading once you verify your account. I figured I’d test it with small amounts just to see if the platform actually works. Here’s what I noticed so far: KYC was pretty fast (took around 15 minutes). The interface looks clean, very similar to Bitget/Bybit. Deposit/withdrawal UI works fine — I withdrew a small amount of USDT to test and it went through in ~5 minutes. They have a futures section, spot pairs seem active but not huge volume. Pros: decent UX, fast verification, responsive support. Cons: small liquidity, limited public info about audits or reserves. I’m not promoting them, just documenting a test in case anyone else was curious. If you’re checking it out, obviously do your own research — never throw big money at smaller exchanges before testing withdrawals. But so far, mine went through smoothly. Curious if anyone else here has used Kcex longer term — how stable has it been for you? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

As a Kurdish dude i approve of this. We're stuck with a stupid outdated bank system so international exchanges are extremely slow and expensive. so people use crypto, and out of all of them, they use USDT as the main currency

NOt if you know what flash USDT is!

KlearCat

Stable coins are incredibly popular with huge demand throughout the world. I know people in third world countries with shitty local currency who have a Binance account with USDT. They know nothing about crypto/bitcoin/etc. They just know that this is easiest way to get USD, which is better than their local currency.

Bullish USDT to $4.20 by EOY /s

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Tether reported a $10 billion profit for the first three quarters of 2025, placing it among the most profitable financial institutions globally. Its earnings surpass Bank of America and U.S. Bank, and are close to Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. Tether's profits stem from returns on $135 billion in U.S. Treasuries held in reserve for its USDT stablecoin. The company plans to launch a U.S.-focused stablecoin, USAT, by year-end, marking its entry into the American market following new stablecoin regulations. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Why is this getting down votes? Yanis is right. He is speaking about the dangers of stablecoins, in particular USDT.

Nearby-Leadership-20

1. Currently it's not widely used as a payment because it's still has volatility. The volatility reduced, at some point it will become less even compared to fiat currencies. At that point BTC would be considered "stable" and "safe", and USD / any other fiat as "risky" "volatile" and "unsafe". 2. Currently people in a lot of countries with shit currencies (even compared to usd) actively use BTC for saving and stablecoins (USDT / USDC / etc.) for purchases (simply because most prices now in USD). But it will change, and BTC or BTC based stablecoins would be used.

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; The demographics of cryptocurrency users are shifting, with stablecoins like USDT and USDC now accounting for 40% of global crypto trading volume. Emerging markets such as Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America are driving this change, using crypto for practical purposes like remittances and small-value payments. New users prioritize utility over ideology, often relying on custodial wallets and simplified security measures. To support this trend, crypto platforms must focus on seamless security, user-friendly interfaces, and practical solutions for financial inclusion. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

I would start from that you don't need to use BTC to send 5$ to a friend. This is not what is BTC for. BTC is more about investment, digital gold you know. For p2p transactions you could better use USDT. That been said, Wallet has non-custodial section called TON, so you can use it for your USDT if you really need that

Post is by: A_tope_trader and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1olpmjn/bitcoin_15m_longshort_strategy_doubles_buy_hold/ Bitcoin 15M Advanced Trading Strategy This strategy is designed to trade Bitcoin on the 15-minute timeframe for long and short positions. It uses an advanced system adapted to price action, combined with automated risk management through stop loss and take profit. It is optimized to adapt to the high volatility and speculative nature of BTC, seeking out trend-driven momentum opportunities and avoiding low-probability periods detected through historical analysis. Timeframe Compatibility While the strategy is specifically adapted and optimized for the 15-minute timeframe (15M), it has been engineered to perform across multiple timeframes ranging from 5-minute to 4-hour intervals. This multi-timeframe versatility allows traders to adjust the strategy parameters according to their preferred trading style and market conditions. This adaptability across different timeframes significantly enhances the strategy's robustness, making it more resilient to varying market regimes and reducing over-optimization to a single timeframe. By testing and validating across 5-minute to 4-hour intervals, the strategy demonstrates consistent edge across diverse trading environments, which strengthens confidence in its performance across broader market conditions. Cross-Asset Testing Beyond Bitcoin, this strategy could be tested and adapted for trading other cryptocurrencies, making it a flexible framework for exploring momentum-based opportunities across different digital assets with varying volatility profiles. Performance Summary This strategy has significantly outperformed a simple buy-and-hold approach over the 6-year backtest period. Here are the standout metrics: Total P&L: +$41,277.80 USDT (+2,063.89%) Net Profit: +$41,277.80 USDT with only 18.35% max drawdown Total Trades: 2,169 with 44.63% win rate Profit Factor: 2.17x (strong edge) Key Advantage Over Buy & Hold The Buy & Hold return was +$16,576.63 USDT (+828.83%), meaning this strategy more than doubled Buy & Hold returns over the same period. The active trading approach consistently captured momentum while the 2.17x profit factor demonstrates edge-based entries. Commission Structure: A 0.1% commission per trade has been factored into the backtesting analysis, which is more than sufficient to cover typical exchange trading fees on major platforms. This conservative fee structure ensures the reported results account for real-world trading costs while still demonstrating substantial profitability. Important Disclaimer This strategy does not guarantee future profits and should be used after testing and analyzing in a simulated environment. A disciplined approach and appropriate risk management are recommended for the cryptocurrency market. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and actual trading may differ from backtested scenarios due to market slippage, liquidity conditions, and changing market dynamics. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Solid list tbh. I’d add UAE (Dubai/Abu Dhabi) because it’s probably the current capital for cash to crypto OTC… there are tons of offices and they’re used to tourists and business people walking in with cash, just compare spreads because some are pricey. Georgia (Tbilisi/Batumi) is another low-friction spot .... lots of ATMs and OTC guys and it’s a regional hub. What you said about Montenegro also kind of applies to Serbia, Armenia, even parts of Kazakhstan… whenever you’ve got Russians and expats moving money, OTC pops up. In Latin America you can do it in Mexico City and parts of Colombia or Argentina but it’s more P2P and USDT focused, not shop-on-every-corner. Two things to watch though... the places that are “too easy” sometimes skip KYC which is fun now but annoying later when an exchange asks for source of funds, and the tourist desks can charge 3–7% just because you’re there. For a few hundred to USDT, Turkey and Dubai are probably the smoothest right now.

I am not here to sell anything — I am looking for critical feedback from technically-minded Redditors about the mechanics, trust model, and fairness design. Introducing YourChance: A Blockchain-Audited Global Raffle Designed for Transparency and Real Odds I’ve spent years watching lotteries and airdrops in crypto end up opaque, manipulative, or just rug pulls with no math behind them. So I built something to test a simple question: can a global raffle exist where every participant can independently verify the fairness of the result? The Core Idea — Transparency + Better Odds Let’s compare it to a traditional lottery: YourChance (Crypto): Ticket Price 1 USDT | Odds 1 in 10,000 (0000-9999) | 100% Blockchain-auditable Typical State Lottery: Ticket Price $5 USD (minimum) | Odds 1 in 300,000,000 (approx.) | Not verifiable You risk $1 for a $2,500 prize, with mathematically fair odds and on-chain proof of randomness. If you want better odds, you simply buy multiple numbers — it’s direct probability, no hidden algorithms. Phase I: Validation over Hype You’ll notice the first prize pool is only $2,500. That’s intentional — this phase is focused entirely on trust and proof of mechanics. The margin from Phase I funds Phase II, guaranteeing a larger $5,000 USDT prize while keeping the ticket price at $1. The margin is not personal profit; it’s a growth guarantee to sustain future draws. The goal is to prove legitimacy now, then scale transparently. Instant Win Feature — “Special Numbers” Four random Special Numbers exist in every draw. If your ticket matches one, you instantly win $50 USDT, independent of the main raffle outcome. It’s a small feature that rewards engagement while maintaining transparency. How We Ensure Fairness — The Trust Protocol We use the Bitcoin Blockchain as an immutable, third-party randomizer. Immutability: The winning number is the last 4 digits of the transaction count in a future BTC block (e.g., Block #840,000). Zero Influence: Nobody, not even the team, can predict or modify how many transactions will exist in that future block. Auditability: Once that block is mined, anyone can verify the result through any block explorer. This effectively turns Bitcoin itself into a decentralized random number generator. Transparency and Secured Funds Before selling a single ticket, the full $2,500 USDT prize is locked in a public wallet. You can verify it directly through the app: yourchance . online Everything is on-chain — no screenshots, no “trust us”. Looking for Feedback I would love your honest thoughts on the following: Is the Bitcoin-block method for randomness the most trustless approach, or are there better decentralized RNG alternatives? Are there any security or audit risks I might be overlooking? What would make you, as a skeptical user, feel fully confident in transparency? TL;DR: $1 entry, 1 in 10,000 odds, fully auditable via Bitcoin block. Phase I is proof of concept; Phase II scales rewards. Funds secured in a public wallet. Seeking feedback, not funding. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

1. Their buy/sell exchange market is totally biased, whatever you buy will be expensive / whatever you sell will be cheaper - FOR THEM - like a considerable margin unlike other CEXs. 2. I could not withdraw USDC / USDT - the minimum is 50 USD and fees is 25% - YES 25%. 3. How to get out: Buy a smaller value coin like ANKR (0.001$ right now) and withdraw it to your ETH address to escape ridiculous fees and save yourself.

I simply do the following: after having Bitcoin on Binance, I convert the Bitcoin to USDT and then sell the USDT on the secondary market, that is, P2P.

SMA 20 ≈ SMA 200 (Compression Zone) → When the 20-day simple moving average approaches or crosses the 200-day, it signals a possible major trend transition. • If 20 SMA crosses above 200 SMA → bullish reacceleration. • If 20 SMA rejects and turns below 200 SMA → renewed bearish phase. 2. Price testing wedge midpoint • Holding the $109 000 support keeps the ascending-trend structure intact. • A close below $109 000 would break both the SMA 200 and the wedge support — a strong bearish signal. ⸻ 🔹 Possible Scenarios 🟢 Bullish Breakout • Trigger: Daily close above $113 000–$115 000 with volume. • Target zone: $120 000 → $126 000 (upper wedge resistance / measured move). • Confirmation: 20 SMA turns up and crosses 200 SMA (“Golden Cross”). • Invalidation: Daily close < $109 000. 🔴 Bearish Breakdown • Trigger: Daily close below $109 000 and confirmed retest failure. • Target zone: $102 000 → $95 000 (major liquidity clusters). • Extension: Could revisit $74 500 macro support (marked Low on chart). • Confirmation: 20 SMA slope turns down; 200 SMA flattens or declines (“Death Cross” risk). ⚪ Neutral / Range Continuation • Range: $109 000 – $120 000. • Expect chop and false breakouts until volume expansion decides direction.

Post is by: Ok-Monitor-7827 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1oj7lzh/what_is_flash_usdt/ Flash USDT is a blockchain-based digital token that mimics the behavior of standard USDT but operates in a controlled virtual environment. It is designed to demonstrate the flow, transferability, and interoperability of tokens across major blockchain networks. Flash USDT can be moved, swapped, and stored like regular Tether tokens but without involving actual monetary value. --- ## What Does Flash USDT Mean in Crypto Flash USDT represents a form of synthetic or temporary token designed to behave like real USDT within a blockchain ecosystem. It is tradable, transferable, and swapable, functioning seamlessly across TRC20, ERC20, and BEP20 networks. The token can remain in a wallet for a customizable duration ranging from 10 to 360 days, depending on its configuration. --- ## Benefits of Flash USDT Flash USDT offers several advantages that make it ideal for blockchain demonstration and testing purposes: ### 1. Can Be Sent to Multiple Wallets Flash USDT can be transferred to popular wallet platforms such as Binance, Trust Wallet, and MetaMask without restrictions. This allows users to explore how token transfers occur across various environments. ### 2. It’s Swapable The token can be swapped between supported networks or exchanged for other compatible assets within the same system. This highlights how decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and swap protocols function. ### 3. It Can Be Used for P2P Transactions Users can send Flash USDT directly between wallets in a peer-to-peer (P2P) manner, helping demonstrate transaction flow and verification on blockchain explorers. ### 4. It Can Be Used for Forex Trading Flash USDT may be used to simulate forex-style trading, offering an understanding of how stablecoins interact in market scenarios without involving actual currency. ### 5. It Can Be Used for Staking in Gambling Websites Some platforms may support Flash USDT for staking simulations or non-monetary games, illustrating how staking mechanics and token rewards operate. --- ## Can I Sell Flash USDT on Binance? Yes, Flash USDT can appear in your Binance or other compatible wallet interface and be transferred between addresses. However, it does not involve real funds — its purpose is purely for blockchain transaction demonstration. --- ## Final Notes — Can Flash USDT Be Converted? No. Flash USDT cannot be converted into real USDT or fiat currency, as it does not represent real monetary value. It is designed to function as a non-monetary blockchain asset, useful for understanding wallet transfers, token lifecycles, and smart contract behavior. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Post is by: Apraemio_ofc and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1oiycli/crypto_market_insights/ GM, APRA Fam, Welcome back to Crypto Insights, your weekly guide to the boldest moves and biggest shifts across the digital asset space. Let’s break it down: 1️⃣ **Is the long-awaited crypto rally finally here?** 🚀 The long-anticipated crypto rally may finally be starting. The United States and China have taken major steps toward creating a mutually beneficial trade framework, easing global market tensions. In response, Bitcoin has climbed back above $115,000, Ethereum is holding near $4,100, and Solana has once again crossed the $200 mark. The crypto market has been positioned for escalation rather than relief, meaning even modest positive news can now trigger strong upward momentum across major assets. 2️⃣ **MegaETH launches its long-awaited sale** 💎 Between October 27–30, MegaETH kicked off one of the most anticipated auctions of the year. The event, held on the Ethereum blockchain, offers 10 billion MEGA tokens available for purchase exclusively in USDT. The low starting price was no coincidence, the team’s goal is to provide fair access and establish a committed, long-term community rather than quick speculation. With strong demand and growing visibility, MegaETH could become a noteworthy player in the Ethereum ecosystem. 3️⃣ **Japanese banks move toward crypto** 🏦 Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) is considering allowing subsidiaries of major banking groups to offer cryptocurrency trading services. This would enable bank-affiliated firms to buy, hold, and trade crypto assets directly. If approved, the move could mark a major step toward integrating traditional finance with digital assets in Japan opening the door for broader institutional participation and accelerating crypto adoption across Asia. 4️⃣ **What to watch next** 👀 • AAVE: Ongoing discussions around a $50M buyback program to strengthen long-term token value. • MON: The project’s first early airdrop is scheduled for October 28. • ETH: BlackRock’s Ethereum ETF staking program reaches its next key milestone on October 30. • SOL: The first spot Solana ETF launched on October 27, marking a major milestone for institutional Solana exposure. We’ll catch you next week with more insights and updates from the ever-evolving crypto market. — **Team APRA** *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

E-gold and Liberty Reserve is as “crypto” as USDT

SWKRYJGB13500

Doable. Any cold wallet. Send the BTC to someone willing to trade, then they transfer you USDT to your cold wallet. Then you can transfer bit by bit to an exchange (recommend Binance or OKX) then you can withdraw fiat to your bank account.

Live_Jazz

No it isn’t. You didn’t sell an asset to get the USDT, and there is no asset appreciation when converting the USDT to USD as they are tied. This is exactly why people take out loans against appreciated assets instead of selling them. The interest is less than the tax hit.

CoinGate

u/setokaiba22 Appreciate the comment. Those numbers only cover crypto payments processed through our payment processor, not all the payments our customers accept in total. The data shows how crypto usage is split, with Bitcoin still leading over USDT, LTC, and USDC. “Consumer services” primarily include electronics, travel, digital subscriptions (such as virtual numbers), and gift cards. Most Bitcoin orders are for web hosting, while larger purchases often come from luxury travel, such as private jet rentals. Agree that most people don’t use Bitcoin day to day, but for cross-border and online services, it’s still one of the most used options through our services.

diegocamachop01

I managed to get to 0.185, BTC but 70% is collateralized against USDT loans because I wanted to maximize my BTC exposure without failing to pay my bills. I know this is high risk in case of a liquidation/also not my keys having BTC in an exchange (Binance). But for me, it is a race against time to stack as many sats as possible at least until I reach 0.35 BTC minimum for a hypothetical crypto retirement (I'm 35 and in my country social security is basically nonexistent). Then, I will go back to normal DCA and use that money to buy more BTC with one half and pay back the loan/reduce LTV with the other. Wish me luck haha.

panthera_N

i have 25% BTC, 75% USDT, i will swap all USDT to BTC if it drops to 75k but maybe putting about 15% into LTC now could be profitable too

theweb3voyager

Dude I already made my 3 million target on a night trading only USDT/USDC pair. Trading on LSD, would definitely recommend.

setokaiba22

This is such a mature of false positives I don’t know where to begin. The headline suggests there’s some huge uplift and it’s threatening fiat when this isnt’ the case “⁠It remains the #1 payment method in 2025, accounting for 22.7% of all transactions this year, followed by USDT (19.8%), LTC (14%) and USDC (11.5%).” I’m assuming this is just relates only for crypto payments and not over cash or card payments in these businesses

Post is by: Ilya_pmz and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1oib2dx/ripple_xrp_analysis/ I recently started tracking the XRP/USDT exchange rate and here's what I found out: Let's take the data from 26 September to 26 October as an example, dividing it into weeks (and counting this week as incomplete). During the week of 3 to 10 October, the exchange rate fell by 22%, which is quite a lot, but if we look at the week after (17-24; 24-27 October), the exchange rate rose by 14.39%, which means that the exchange rate is gradually returning to the level seen at the end of September. Over the last three days, the exchange rate against the dollar has risen by 3.40%. If everything continues in the same vein, in two and a half weeks the exchange rate may return to three dollars per 1. I am not saying that the exchange rate will definitely do so (no one can predict the future), I am just speculating. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Can tether just state this without having to proof it? No way do 500 million people use USDT. Thats ridiculous. Maybe 10 million people.

Bowlly1941

LTC/USDT is used more in digital marketplaces such as cs2 and roblox. BTC is more of an SOV than a spendable currency.

Sudden_Buyer3852

USDT in EU? So.. I'm starting to sell all my alts (trade them for USDT and USDC), so I can then buy more Bitcoin in the bear market. My plan was to park 70% in USDT and 30% in USDC just to be safe. But now i found out Binance no longer operates USDT in Europe. Whats the safest stable coin to park it then?

Radiant-War-7826

I am staking USDT as a stable coin. Gives me 8.7% annual interest paid daily

EasyAd3949

So clueless. I agree btc is still unique, but coins like XRP and USDT provide daily utility in massive amounts of transactions that absolutely dwarf BTC. BTC is turning into a value store more and more. In almost every other aspect, BTC us being surpassed by other coins.

phoenixdiceflow

Unless you’re holding tens of millions of USDT, you should be fine. USDT has a market cap of almost $200 billion so if it goes down, the entire crypto industry will go down.

Wait til you learn about rgb which is live on btc without any forks. It does basically everything alts cover, from potential future scaling, to extra privacy via zk starks, to tokens and smart contracts. 2 versions of it are live now and tether already moved some USDT to rgb. Plus it runs on L1 and L2 lightning network. Drive chains also allows basically any crypto idea and now it also apparently doesn't need any forks.

foreveryoungperk

the whole point of it being a currency is not cashing out.... cash is worthless. TRADERS can cash out and they can trade XMR without buying it SPOT. you can trade XMR futures with USDT and not actually be buying the xmr AND u can do it thru KYC exchanges. if you want to actually be a monero believer and use it as a currency i have the ultimate method for a cold wallet and how to transfer to a spending wallet without ever connecting the cold wallet to the internet.

tldr; Stablecoins are increasingly used for real-world payments, with $136 billion in transactions reported between January 2023 and August 2025, led by B2B payments. Tether’s USDT dominates the market with 85% share, primarily on the Tron blockchain. Despite their growing popularity, stablecoin payments face high fees, especially on exchanges, and blockchain congestion exacerbates costs. While major firms like Visa and PayPal are integrating stablecoins, challenges like scalability and high transaction fees remain significant hurdles for broader adoption. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Post is by: Crypto_Sepharial and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1og8lor/stablecoins_tokens_are_not_crypto_assets_they_are/ Many ppl in the crypto space thing stablecoins are crypto- They are not. Stabecoins are not crypto- they are digital, but not crypto assets. The stable coins are the equivalent of "agent coins/tokens" inside the crypto space. You cant make any signifcant profit from them and they are allegedly backed by US Dollars by third party entities. In some cases you can lose money with a "stablecoin"- yes its possible. This defeats its inherent purpose & nature by default. But why are they here in the crypto space? Wel the stablecoins we know of today: USDT -Tether (est 2014) USD- USD Coin ( est. Sept 2018) TUSD- True USD (est Mar 2018) GUSD- Gemini USD ( est 2018) BUSD- Binance USD (est 2019) Notice all of these are late comers to the crypto spce and come out roughly all at the same time. Introduced by NSA. How did they get into the crypto space? By the crypto exchanges. The later iterations of stablecoin names says it all as they were named after the exchanges that pushed the stablecoins/tokens. Digital stablecoins have nothing to do with crypto but are there to promote the adoption of digital currency allegedly pegged to the US dollar. Again, this is not crypto nor how crypto operates. Fast forward: The Genius Act signed by Trump 7/18/2025. Alleging to make America the leader in "Digital Assets" - (not crypto). The word Crypto is used 3 times and always referenced to Digital Assets aka stablecoins. Trump ran on a platform of being a crypto friendly President but that was smoke and mirrors as his Genius Act doesnt concern itself with crypto- but instead "DIGIAL ASSETS" like stable coins. The GENIUS Act doesn’t *replace* the U.S. monetary system, but it **augments and reforms** it by formally including **stablecoins** as recognized, regulated digital money-equivalent instruments. It accelerates the digitization of the payments system, gives banks and fintechs new issuance channels, and could significantly shift where and how money flows globally. In doing so, it potentially strengthens the U.S. dollar’s dominance and positions U.S. financial infrastructure at the center of the future digital-asset economy — but it also exposes the global economy to new dynamics of money flow, capital mobility, and cross-border payment friction. How smoothly this transition occurs—and how well risks are managed—will determine whether the outcome is **innovation plus stability** or **disruption plus instability**. In short expect big swings in crypto should the stablecoin volume be disrupted as the total supply of stablecoins is always changing (increasing) to allow it to be intriduced into the global economy. The equivalent of a digital money printer = stabelcoins. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I don’t trade everyday I wait for RSI conditions to be below 30% on 15m, 45m & 2H charts. I caught a rise from LTC from $91.75 to $95 & again from $91 to $96 with a small portion and hand been holding USDT since

Do you want to use TRC20 USDT? You don't really need to worry about the exchange - as long as you can get USDT on Eth or Solana etc into your own wallet (like Metamask, or Phantom), you can then bridge it to Tron yourself, using Rhino Finance.

For USDT, EU users 🇪🇺 like me can't use USDT because of regulation so we have to stick with USDC pairs 😅

thebaldmaniac

Does no one find it shady that USDT is not compliant under both EU and US laws and Tether has to create a whole new stablecoin for the US market?

USDT is pegged to USD. USD debasement = USDT debasement. It’s all the same hedge, opting to hard money.

Aave is a solid DeFi lending protocol on the Ethereum network, and I’ve always been interested in it. It’s currently trading around $220, but it tanked hard during the 10/10/2025 crash. At the time, CoinMarketCap’s fair price dropped to $109.72 USDT, Bybit’s inverse contract hit $122.66, Crypto.com’s spot was $81.59, and Coinbase’s spot reached $128. Even Binance’s spot price fell to $79.51, but their inverse contract plummeted to $63.50. Shockingly, Binance force-liquidated my 1,000+ AAVE at $64—way below market—then the price rebounded. What a scam!

Fit_Age8019

makes sense wanting to skip CEXs too many hoops and risks lately. for direct swaps, you’ve got a few solid non-custodial routes. Bisq or Hodl Hodl work if you want full peer-to-peer privacy, though liquidity can be slower. For faster swaps, I’ve used rubic it’s non-custodial and aggregates 100+ blockchains, so BTC→USDT happens in one go without KYC or wrapped tokens.

dreamylanterns

But how sure are we of that? I mean what about USDT or any other coin that can be made by the government if they really wanted to?

cexfinder_official

Seeing some good (and bad) advice in some of the comments, but didn't notice anyone suggesting this so here it goes. Even if you don't intend to invest into Bitcoin right now, you can consider converting some of your savings into USDT or other stablecoins. With staking yields currently often around \~5-6%, you can at least negate the inflation while you potentially wait for a good buying opportunity. This way you're still getting some kind of a return meanwhile.

Thanks for the advice on stop-losses—it’s a solid point, and I’ll consider it moving forward. But the October 10 Binance crash wasn’t just about my risk management. USDE/WBETH/BNSOL depegged, and ATOM/IOTX local prices tanked to 0, triggering liquidations despite stable Mark Prices (\~3 USDT for ATOM). USDE was normal on other exchanges. Worse, Binance altered K-lines just three days later, caught by victims. Thousands worldwide have proof—screenshots, logs—on X . This smells like a depth issue or manipulation, not just unhealthy collateral. u/heyibinance offered $6,000, but it’s nothing compared to the billions lost.

We gathered many victims ready to seek justice from Binance. Some couldn't close their positions when this tragedy occurred, while others, like me, were liquidated at extremely low prices. Even worse, the ATOM/USDT and IOTX/USDT pairs dropped to nearly zero that day, and Binance was caught altering the K-lines on October 14, 2025.

Only TRX and USDT the trx version

stabledash

Hey, don’t feel dumb - this is actually a super common confusion and honestly the fact that you’re asking these questions means you’re thinking about it the right way. So here’s the thing: you’re right that stablecoins don’t go up in price. That’s literally the point. But you’re missing why that’s useful. Think of stablecoins like digital cash that works on the internet. The reason they exist isn’t to make money from price going up - it’s to have dollars that can move instantly, 24/7, anywhere in the world, without banks in the middle. If I want to send you $500 right now, on a Sunday night, and you’re in another country, traditional banking makes that either impossible or expensive as hell. With stablecoins, it’s done in seconds for pennies. So where does the 8-10% yield come from? This is where it gets interesting. When you hold USDC or USDT, companies like Circle and Tether take your dollars, invest them in super safe things like US Treasury bills (government bonds that pay interest), and they keep most of that profit. But there’s a whole ecosystem of people who need to borrow stablecoins - traders who want leverage, businesses that need working capital, people in countries with unstable currencies who desperately want access to dollars. They’re willing to pay interest to borrow those stablecoins. That’s where your yield comes from: you’re essentially lending your stablecoins (through platforms like Aave or directly through newer protocols) to people who need them, and they pay you interest for that access. It’s not magic - it’s just supply and demand for dollar liquidity in the crypto ecosystem. Is it safe though? This is the right question to ask. The safest yield comes from stablecoins backed by US Treasuries where you’re basically earning whatever the Fed is paying (currently around 4-5%). That’s pretty low-risk. The 8-10% rates you’re seeing? Those typically come from DeFi lending platforms where you’re taking on more risk - the platform could have bugs, borrowers could default (though there are protections), etc. Higher yield = higher risk, always. Should you do it? If you’re just trying to understand the basics, honestly I’d say start by just learning more before putting money in. The yield stuff is real, but you need to understand what you’re getting into first. If you really want to understand this space better, check out Stabledash - we do a ton of interviews with the actual companies building this stuff (Circle, the stablecoin issuers, the platforms offering yield, etc.) and break down how it all actually works. Way better than random Reddit threads for getting the real story. Bottom line: Stablecoins exist because moving money globally is still a mess, and they solve real problems. The yield opportunities are real but come with varying levels of risk. You’re not dumb - this stuff is complicated, and most people explaining it assume you already know the basics.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

USDC = audited, trusted USDT = very dodgy lol. Based in some small private bank in the Cayman islands I think. My favorite theory is that USDT is a CIA op. There's no way that small private bank is actually producing that much USDT that's pegged to a physical dollar. If they actually are, they should be in the forbes 500 lol. If not, how come they haven't been raided yet for printing fake dollars? I honestly think the government/CIA op to smuggle/make funds theory could be true.

BTC_is_waterproof

They also bring more money in the crypto space. People with USDT are a lot money likey to buy BTC than someone with USD.

KIG45

USDT is shady and the EU has rejected it. Exchanges are forcing us to use only USDC. I think that should be enough for you to draw your own conclusions.

uncapchad

It matters if you live in the EU. USDC is allowed. USDT not so much because of regulation. This might also be the case in other countries/states. You might also find that the thing you want to buy only trades against USDT not USDC or vice versa. The only reasons to hold a stable coin is because of a specific trade pair or to earn yield. USDT claims to be backed by various things incl US Treasuries and every now and again, the issue of USDT's transparency comes up. I've seen this issue raised in this sub for 7 years now, USDT has been around for 11 years. The debate will rage on and we will remain none the wiser. Risk exists for all stable coins in terms of pegging, backing, changing legislation and as I mentioned, tradeable pairs (which can also change at the whim of the exchange). So the general advice is: treat stables as any other cryptocurrency - examine your personal risk should an unforeseen event occur. It's not insured.

Cryptomuscom

USDC is generally considered more transparent, while USDT carries some audit and reserve risks. For short-term use, both are widely accepted, but keep an eye on developments.

MysteriousGuitar8368

Yes, it's definitely not for all of the assets that I'm using. But after the last flash crash, I started looking into how stablecoins are backed, and per what I found, USDT used pretty big exposure of loans, crypto as part of the reserve, while USDC mostly treasuries, which might be more stable in case of a Stock market crisis or other financial problems. So basically, as more I delve into this, I have more and more questions.

diwalost

If USDT loses its peg permanently, crypto is doomed. So you can hold USDT without much worry. But good advice would be to never put all your eggs in one basket.

The platform will resume trading with a phased rollout starting Friday, offering zero trading fees for at least 30 days to attract users. Initially, trading will focus on USDt (USDT) pairs and gradually expand. The relaunch follows a prolonged recovery process, including forensic investigations and court-supervised restructuring. WazirX aims to restore liquidity and ensure a smooth restart. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

Minute-Show-6582

I'll try to answer - 1. Stablecoins like Tether and USDC let you benefit from blockchain tech, without exposing your funds to the volatility of the crypto market. Your 1 USDT will remain 1 USD. But your 1 BTC may be zero if the market crashes. 2. The conversion from stablecoin to other tokens is easier and quicker. In case of emergencies (like market crashes), people usually convert their holdings into stablecoins to dodge market instability. 3. Companies that issue stablecoins back those coins up with real dollars and investments in treasury bonds. Plus, they have other verticals like software and APIs. 4. People in some countries (like China and India) cannot hold US dollars above a certain limit. In such cases, you can hold the USD-adjacent stablecoins without having to go through paperwork.

Comfortable-Half5165

If you’re starting small, go with ADA stable and good long-term. USDT is safe for holding value. The rest (DOGE, APE, TRX) are riskier but fun if you want to experiment. Start small and focus on learning first 👍

USDT is not Ethereum.

FishermanGreen121

Did you know that USDT coins that go through the Ethereum network can be frozen or reversed, but I have no idea how they do it. I think you have to talk to their official support team to do something like that. There are also small projects that can do that, such as $lss lossless. It's a shame that right now that project is more dead than alive.

Rare_Rich6713

Tbh that’s a super fair question I was confused about stablecoins too at first. The main idea is they give you crypto-level flexibility but stay pegged to $1, so you don’t deal with the crazy volatility. You can send money, earn yield, or use DeFi protocols without worrying about price swings. For example, I use stablecoins through xMoney sometimes basically lets me pay or send USDT/USDC without touching fiat or paying crazy fees. So yeah, it’s not about making money from price moves, it’s about using dollars in crypto form for easier payments and access to DeFi stuff.

GBeastETH

So they can scam the seller and steal their USDT.

The Russians are coming. *Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov announced that the government and the Central Bank have agreed to legalize and regulate cryptocurrency transactions(Bitcoin, USDT) for international trade, formalizing an experimental legal regime launched in September to enable Russian businesses to circumvent Western sanctions.* For cross-border settlement only. Interesting times ahead...

Our currency isn’t even listed on Binance, maybe one day it will be, but I’m not going to exchange AOA directly for Bitcoin. I’ll buy USDT on the parallel market and then convert the USDT to BTC, you understand?

Convert to USDT. And trade. From 400k to 1m is possible. Btc is in a clear downtrend on a daily time frame You can trade with tight stoplosses, stort when it breaks major supports And long with it bounces off with volume from supports.

BitMartExchange

don’t worry, you’re definitely not dumb for asking this! Stablecoins confuse a lot of people at first because they don’t “go up,” but they serve a really different purpose in the crypto ecosystem. Basically: * **USDT/USDC = crypto versions of the U.S. dollar.** They stay around $1 so traders and investors can move money quickly *without* touching banks. * They act as a **bridge** \- people use them to trade into BTC, ETH, altcoins, or DeFi products instantly, 24/7. * For yield - that 8–10% you’ve seen - it usually comes from **lending or liquidity**: you’re letting someone else borrow or use your stablecoins (like how banks lend out deposits). Some platforms pay higher returns because they lend to margin traders or use DeFi pools. That said, risk still exists. The yield isn’t magic, it comes with counterparty or smart contract risk, depending on where your coins are parked.

Depending on jurisdiction.... nexo availability, 5k USDT rolling 3 month fixed terms1.25k ea @16%, borrow against the remaining 1.25k @ 90% collateral to buy nexo. Split the other 5k between btc,eth,sol,xrp

Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT / USDC

verysillyman

USDT dominance is looking extremely bullish, which means altcoins are about to get even more destroyed :/

AnoAnoSaPwet

Money laundering mostly. It's just a way to not convert back to fiat while taking profits in the cryptocurrency markets. They are primarily used as a $1:$1 safeguard to be able to sell whatever you want without any risk involved of the currency crashing or spiking in value.  Everything used to be transacted in BTC, when BTC actually served a purpose in this space, but now since USDT took over, BTC is basically just another memecoin without any purpose at all. 

RetiredAvocado

Printing USDT out of thin air and depositing it to an exchange implies that something will be purchased with it on that exchange. Or maybe staked, but why would they eek out measly % staking when they can just print more of it? So it's likely going to be used to buy some coin. Not necessarily bitcoin.

Forymanarysanar

1) A way for people from poor countries where they can't purchase USD still purchase USD and protect their savings from hyperinflation 2) A way to sell your crypto or buy your crypto immediately and lock the profit without having to immediately dealing with fiat 3) A way for websites to accept payments in an user-friendly manner without having to worry about fluctuating prices. Surely 10 USDT/10 USDC looks a lot more understandable than 0.000089 BTC

northcasewhite

It's about convenience. It's easy to go from BTC to USDT and it is especially for people in countries that don't have USD. If you want to send $$ to someone in a poor country it will be cheaper via USDT. Terrible to hold long term.

CryptoAd007

P2P is required to on & off ramp to & from USDT/USDC without KYC. Once you have USDT/USDC, you may do spot & margin on HyperLiquid, Lighter, Aster, EdgeX etc.

thebaldmaniac

two things which jump out at me \- quick swaps to and from crypto, so you can sell at highs, hold the stablecoin, and swap again when the market dips. Much faster and usually cheaper than swapping to and from Fiat. In some jurisdictions this is also tax benefecials \- in countries with inflationary currencies which also have capital controls, people turn to stablecoins to hold value. You see a large adoption on USDT in countries like Venezuela for example. \- Some Defi protocols and even some CEXes offer a good percentage APY on holding or staking stablecoins. A good alternative to hold your savings.

Realistic-Falcon4998

To trade safely, always define your **entry price**, **target price**, **stop-loss**, and **exit price** before you even open a position - whether you’re trading in a bullish or bearish market. These levels protect your capital and help you stick to a plan instead of reacting emotionally. In case of a sudden market crash, the best move is to automatically convert your holdings to **USDT** or another stablecoin to preserve value and wait for a clearer re-entry signal. Smart risk management beats luck every time.

If your done with cetnralised platforms, then just trade your BTC for USDT on coinbase and transfer it to a non-custodial wallet or hard wallet. Why would you transfer it out and then swap, its already on an exchange

StatisticalMan

>Just a direct, non-custodial exchange No such thing exists. There are non cross chain non-custodial solutions involving trading Bitcoin for anything. Even sites which may make it seem like that because you just send funds to an address and get funds at the destination address are still custodial. Non-custodial (i.e. defi) solutions for exchanging ETH to anything ERC-20 to include USDT exist but not Bitcoin at least not directly.
