According to @paoloardoino, Tether (USDT) has been officially recognized by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) for its assistance in the seizure of $225 million connected to a major pig butchering fraud scheme (source: tether.io/news/tether-ac…). This move demonstrates Tether’s commitment to compliance and risk management, signaling increased regulatory scrutiny for stablecoins. For crypto traders, this development may strengthen market confidence in USDT and other stablecoins, as transparent enforcement actions could reduce illicit activity and support broader crypto adoption (source: DOJ announcement, June 18, 2025).
