Bahama-based bank: “All tether in the market is fully backed by U.S. dollar”

The company Tether and their currency tether (usdt) have attracted a lot of attention in the media lately. Their currency is being used as a substitute for dollar, cause every tether is backed by one dollar. However, many in the crypto world have been wondering if every tether really is backed by one dollar.

Now, the company Tether has started a banking relationship with the Bahamas-based Deltec Bank & Trust. In a press release, Deltec Bank & Trust confirms that Tether has deposited just over $1.83 billion in the bank’s accounts. This sum covers all the tether available on the market.

“All usdt in the market are fully backed by U.S. dollars that are safely deposited in our bank accounts”, Deltec Bank & Trust writes in a letter dated the first of November.
