Tether Limited has appear a long-awaited third affair report which may allay the affliction fears about the cryptocurrency market. The report, issued by Freeh Sporkin & Sullivan, LLP, begin that the Tether badge is absolutely backed by US dollars.
The annual comes to the abatement of a afraid market, in which abounding skeptics accept accused Tether and the associated Bitfinex Exchange of adopting prices with ailing Tether tokens. “Based on a accidental date antithesis analysis and a abounding analysis of accordant coffer annual documentation,” the two companies said in a collective columnist release, the address “confirms that all Tethers in apportionment as of June 1, 2024 are absolutely backed by absolute USD reserves.”
The address can be apprehend in its absoluteness here.
“Despite speculation, we accept consistently declared that Tether is backed by USD affluence at or beyond the Tethers in apportionment at a accustomed moment, and we’re animated to accept absolute analysis of this to acknowledgment some of the questions airish by the public,” said Tether CEO Jan Ludovicus van der Velde.

There are still some gaps to be filled. The address emphasizes that it “should not be construed as an audit,” and FSS is not an auditing firm. Moreover, the address alone shows that Tethers were absolutely backed on June 1st–saying annihilation about balances or annual action above-mentioned to Tether’s assurance with FSS.
“The basal band is an analysis cannot be obtained,” Stuart Hoegner, Tether’s accepted counsel, told Bloomberg in a buzz account Tuesday. “We’ve gone for what we anticipate is the abutting best thing.”

After months of apocalyptic ticking, the long-feared “Tether bomb” seems to be a dud.
