Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino made the following statements in his statement on the subject:

“Cryptocurrency is a powerful tool, but it is not and should not be a tool for crime.

Contrary to popular belief, cryptocurrency transactions are not anonymous; these are the most traceable and traceable assets. Every transaction is recorded on the blockchain, making it possible for anyone to track the movement of funds.

As a result, criminals foolish enough to use cryptocurrencies in illegal activities will inevitably be detected.

Tether remains committed to promoting the responsible use of blockchain technology and being a strong defense against cybercrime.

“We look forward to continued collaboration with global law enforcement as part of our commitment to global security and financial integrity.”
