USDT saw a surge in activity following regulatory scrutiny. 
However, a common trading strategy that could have benefited BTC failed to materialize.
The U.S. government has reportedly launched another investigation into Tether [USDT], a move some are calling the latest “Tether FUD” tactic. 

The timing raises eyebrows, with some speculating this is an orchestrated attempt to inject fear and shake out the market before a potential Bitcoin [BTC] breakout. 

Given that over 70% of cryptocurrency trades involve USDT pairs, analysts at AMBCrypto caution about the risks tied to Tether’s centralization.

Any disruption to USDT could send shockwaves through the entire market. Particularly as BTC heads into the final week of the “Uptober” frenzy.
