Tether is controversial, but Jiangshan is still solid

As the earliest stable currency, Tether used its early advantages to quickly occupy the entire stable currency market, but the controversy surrounding the Tether dollar reserve and transparency of distribution has never been broken. According to Tether's previous rules, Tether (USDT) has 100% reserve reserves as support, with $1 per reserve as a reserve. However, in mid-March, the Tether official website revised the reserve system and changed the full reserve to a partial reserve. This means that Tether (USDT) no longer has equal dollar support, which analysts believe will increase Tether risk.

However, despite the criticism of Tether, there are no competitors that can pose a threat to Tether. According to cryptoslate data, in the stable currency market, Tether (USDT) currently has a market value of 2.84 billion US dollars, followed by USD Coin, 251 million US dollars, and the third TrueUSD, 199 million US dollars, which is quite different from Tether. However, it is also true that Tether's market share has decreased. With the continued support of USD Coin supported by Circle and the stable currency issued by Gemini and Paxos, the New York Financial Services Authority (NYDFS) is backed up. Unable to solve, Tether's market share may continue to fall, perhaps for this reason, Tether chose to cooperate with the wave field in March to issue USDT in the wave field blockchain.
