i found some court filings that detail one man's attempt to use the courts to force #Tether and other #cryptocurrency companies to give him back $3 million that was stolen from him.

spoiler: it didn't go well. the crypto companies used their standard defense of "#blockchain is open source so not our problem lol".

not only did he have to chase the crypto companies through multiple jurisdictions (#singapore, british virgin islands, etc), in the end i don't think he got any of his money back from the (probably) #Russian criminals who stole it.

#Binance, which lists #Trump’s #USD1, does not operate in the #US. Binance’s US subsidiary, Binance.us, does NOT list Trump’s #stablecoin.

$2.15B—USD1’s market cap as of Thurs, makes it the 49th most-popular #stablecoin, according to Binance.

Binance is the 2nd troubled #crypto #exchange to list USD1 this month. Trump’s stablecoin also began trading on #KuCoin, a Seychelles-based exchange that pleaded #guilty in Jan to operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business.
