Tether USDt priceUSDT

COINOTAG News reports that Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino announced a mobile cryptocurrency wallet in development, featuring AI functionality. The wallet will support a restricted asset set: Bitcoin, USDT, the new stablecoin USAT, and the tokenized gold token XAUT, with local private AI supplied via QVAC. The project is backed by the open-source wallet toolkit WDK and the decentralized AI platform QVAC, both launched by Tether. Reports also indicate Tether is recruiting a Chief Software Engineer to advance the wallet’s development. The initiative underscores a focus on privacy and security while aligning with regulatory considerations.

$BTC One copy–paste. $50,000,000 gone. A USDt whale just sent 49,999,950 USDT to a POISONED address they copied from their own history. Address poisoning = attackers send tiny txs from look‑alike wallets (same first 3 + last 4 chars) so you “help” them by copy‑pasting the wrong one later. Even a 2‑year‑old, actively managed wallet got clipped. Funds already swapped to ETH and partially washed via Tornado Cash. Simple rules: • NEVER copy from history, only from a trusted source. • Always double‑check the FULL address, not just the edges. • For size: do multiple test txs or use allowlists. In crypto, UX doesn’t kill you. Habits do. #Bitcoin #BTC

Crypto Market Overview (December 14-21, 2025) 📉 The global cryptocurrency market continued to experience significant volatility, with Bitcoin dropping below $90,000 on December 14 and further declining to $86,000 by December 18. This decline was driven by fading expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts and weakening U.S. macroeconomic data. Ethereum fluctuated between $2,900–$3,100, while altcoins like Solana and XRP saw weekly losses exceeding 5%. The total market capitalization dropped 2% week-on-week, reaching approximately $3.06–$3.08 trillion, marking an eight-month low by December 19. 📊 Positive regulatory signals emerged, with the U.S. SEC removing cryptocurrency from its 2026 priority list and confirming pro-crypto nominees for leadership positions at CFTC and FDIC. The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act is slated for Senate markup in January 2026, offering hope for clearer market frameworks. However, Senator Cynthia Lummis, a strong crypto advocate, announced her retirement. 💸 China injected ¥1.05 trillion (approximately $1.4 trillion) into the market, echoing past events that triggered parabolic crypto rallies. The Bank of Japan (BOJ) raised rates to a 30-year high, creating risks for Bitcoin. However, U.S. Bitcoin ETFs saw strong inflows of $457 million, indicating sustained institutional interest despite price slumps. 🛡️ A major phishing attack resulted in a $50 million USDT loss, with victims offering a $1 million reward for recovery. Quantum computing threats resurfaced in discussions, although experts like Adam Back dismissed them as market manipulation. Memecoins and small-cap tokens hit multi-year lows, highlighting broader weakness in altcoins. 🚀 Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin reached a market cap of $1.26 billion, becoming the third-largest U.S.-regulated stablecoin. TRON integrated with Kalshi for deposits and withdrawals, and Polkadot gained native USDC access via Coinbase. Prediction markets like Kalshi surged in popularity, climbing to #3 on the App Store. #CryptoInsights #MarketTrends

MEXC users are reporting lost funds and premarket scams, with trades failing and collateral vanishing against the rules. One buyer got screwed when the seller defaulted but MEXC kept the collateral, another waited days for stuck USDT. Echoes last month’s big drama with frozen accounts, even though reserves look solid trust is taking hits. MEXC is catching heat again as users report lost funds and premarket trade issues. Analyst Gautamgg posted on X about two big problems in the last 20 days that break the exchange’s own rules. Traders say support gives confusing answers and settlements drag on or fail. 🚨 MEXC SCAM EXPOSED – PROOF ATTACHED I’ve been trading on MEXC premarket for the last 10–11 months without issues.But as more new users joined recently, @MEXC_Official has started doing shady stuff.In the last 20 days, 2 serious cases happened – must read→ CASE 1:… pic.twitter.com/bl3eaCovvN— Gautamgg 🕵 (@Gautamguptagg) December 20, 2025 One case had a buyer picking up RateX at $0.4 while the listing hit $1.3. The seller didn’t settle, but MEXC kept the collateral instead of handing it to the buyer, going against their Rule 10 on refunds for defaults. Another trade got canceled, and USDT sat stuck for over 10 days with no clear word from support. Past Drama Lingers This echoes late October when trader The WhiteWhale accused MEXC of freezing over $3 million without good reason, tied to profitable trades. ZachXBT looked into similar complaints, sparking big backlash. CSO Cecilia Hsueh apologized publicly October 31, admitting communication mess-ups, and funds got released. Withdrawals spiked amid solvency whispers, but MEXC denied issues and pointed to over 100% reserves. MEXC posted fresh Proof of Reserves November 3 showing full backing for USDT, USDC, Bitcoin, and Ethereum. They use Merkle Tree checks with mirrors on CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, and DefiLlama. From April to June they blocked over 70,000 fraud tries linked to 8,500 groups, cutting fraud by 12%.Crypto scams are exploding anyway. TRM Labs says AI scams jumped 456% from May 2024 to April 2025, with $2.47 billion lost first half of the year. One guy recently dropped $50 million USDT on a copy-paste wallet trick. MEXC says reserves are solid and they’re fighting fraud hard, but trust takes hits with these reports. Traders have to stay alert, keep an eye on the rules, and be ready for sudden account closures in such a fast changing market. share TagsCryptoMEXCScam

To truly understand how Ston.fi works, you must understand the concept of Automated Market Makers (AMMs). AMMs are the engine behind most decentralized exchanges, including Ston.fi. Unlike centralized exchanges where buyers and sellers place orders in an order book, AMMs use smart contracts and mathematical formulas to determine prices automatically. On Ston.fi, every token pair (for example, TON/USDT) exists inside a liquidity pool. These pools are funded by users called liquidity providers. Instead of matching buyers and sellers, the AMM allows users to trade directly against the pool. When someone buys a token, its quantity in the pool decreases, and its price increases. When someone sells, the opposite happens. The most common pricing formula used by AMMs is: x × y = k Where: x = amount of token A y = amount of token B k = constant This formula ensures that liquidity is always available and prices adjust automatically based on supply and demand. One major advantage of AMMs on Ston.fi is continuous liquidity. Traders never have to wait for another trader to take the opposite side of a trade. As long as liquidity exists in the pool, swaps can happen instantly. Thanks to TON’s high throughput and low fees, these swaps are fast and affordable. However, AMMs also introduce an important concept called impermanent loss. This occurs when the price of tokens in a pool changes significantly compared to when you deposited them. While liquidity providers earn trading fees, price volatility can sometimes reduce overall returns. Impermanent loss is not a permanent loss unless you withdraw at the wrong time, and in many cases, fees and farming rewards can offset it. Understanding AMMs helps you make smarter decisions—whether you’re swapping tokens or providing liquidity. It explains why prices move, how pools work, and what risks exist. Mastering this concept is a big step toward becoming confident in DeFi on Ston.fi.
