Tether terminates Bitcoin support while advertising Bitcoin support

This morning, $162 billion stablecoin giant Tether proudly announced that its team is excited to “bring USDT home to Bitcoin” via two new protocols. Missing from that announcement is the reality that Tether is actually terminating support for most USDT-on-Bitcoin tokens on September 1. As part of a “strategic infrastructure review,” Tether admitted on July 11 that it would be terminating support on September 1, 2025 for its largest version of USDT on Bitcoin’s blockchain , the Omni layer. After Monday, the only USDT-on-Bitcoin tokens left will be less than $50 million on Blockstream’s Liquid, a functionary-controlled sidechain. Incredibly, Tether was honest in July, explaining that Bitcoin’s Omni layer wasn’t “high-utility, actively developed” infrastructure “aligned with community usage trends” as much as other blockchains that the company decided to continue supporting. So, effective September 1, redemptions of USDT-on-Bitcoin Omni will cease and tokens will...

Zora updates coin guidelines after ZachXBT calls out Sahil collab

Zora is now “hiding” sketchy coins under new guidelines after the Coinbase-backed crypto firm was ridiculed for promoting a fake Tyson Fury account and apparently planning to collaborate with an alleged serial rug artist.  Zora announced on X that any coins breaking community guidelines will be hidden and yet remain available to buy, sell, or transfer.  If you own one of these coins, it will appear in your wallet with a scam warning that says it is hidden “due to impersonation, offensive content, or your settings.” Zora is on damage control after the crypto sleuth ZachXBT revealed screenshots showing higher-ups from Zora and Coinbase planning to collaborate with Sahil Arora to onboard users onto the platform. Why did your team and Jesse from Coinbase engage at all with Sahil to begin with? His list of celebrity coin rug pulls on Solana is well documented on X by CT and on YT by Coffeezilla so a quick search would have revealed warnings. pic.twitter.com/9eXUfgfSP6 ...
