Tether CTO gives suggestion over LUNA crash

In an interview with Scott Melker, Paolo Ardoino, Tether CTO answered some questions about the ongoing trouble and de-pegging of the USDT.

Ardoino said that their portfolio is extremely solid and de-pegging won’t happen. People can redeem it at any time. we never refuse one single redemption in the history of the Tether.

He mentioned that they go on a weekly basis stress test. It also includes data from the 2008 crisis which makes them ready for every situation.

On being asked about the recovery from the LUNA crash, he said that it is a tough call. I think that if they are able to explain what happened and in order to regain confidence in market they need to grow organically and slow.
