#FDUSD, the stablecoin that drives most bitcoin and ethereum trading on the world’s largest crypto exchange (#Binance), appears to imploding in the aftermath of the revelations of various Hong Kong court filings about how First Digital (the company behind FDUSD) is insolvent.

Trump’s business advisor/partner/whatever Justin Sun, who is of course connected to this disaster, just promised the world a press conference on a “Major Industry Event”.

🍿

#TrueUSD, one of the many stablecoins connected to Chinese crypto scammer & Donald Trump business partner #JustinSun, received a half billion dollar bailout from... Justin Sun when it couldn't get its capital out of First Digital, another chinese #moneylaundering company that runs a stablecoin #FDUSD that is used for most trading on #Binance.

> "In September 2024, #TrueCoin and #TrustToken (the #stablecoin's owners before #Techteryx) settled with the #SEC over allegations they falsely marketed TrueUSD as fully dollar-backed while secretly investing reserves in risky offshore funds."

@Sibshops binance offers pretty much every trading pair. historically tether is actually often not even the most popular stablecoin on binance, because binance chooses to make certain pairs "no fee" (and since 2022 it's rarely Tether).

during "crypto winter" it was TUSD (#JustinSun) and then they switched it to #FDUSD (First Digital USD, run by literal ponzi scammers in Asia).

all that said, Binance is definitely part of the Tether cartel.

American #SEC has filed suit against #TrueUSD / #TrustToken arguing that its reserves consisted of 99% illiquid offshore assets and it became unbacked by actual dollars ca. 2022.

While most people outside of #crypto have never heard of TrueUSD's token #TUSD (a competitor to #Tether's #USDT; see my pinned toot) it's worth understanding that TUSD was for most of a year the single most important #stablecoin and the one that was responsible for the *vast* majority of #bitcoin trades on by far the largest crypto marketplace, #Binance. The company is also rumored to be owned by the sketchiest guy in crypto, #JustinSun.

Put another way: the price of #Bitcoin was measured in TUSD, not real USD for most of last year. (Now it's measured mostly in an even sketchier stablecoin #FDUSD.)
