Tether Is Releasing a Documentary. Why?

No sooner had the HBO film dedicated to the secret identity of Satoshi Nakamoto hit the screens than Tether announced their documentary project in honor of the 10th anniversary of USDT.

In the trailer, the creators pedal the theme of "USDT against inflation". They show people from Turkey, Brazil, Argentina - countries where national currencies have lost trust.

But here's the problem: everyone has known all the most interesting things about Tether for a long time. Including their close cooperation with the US government through the purchase of government bonds. Moreover, Tether buys them more actively than Germany and any other financial institution in the world.

And here cognitive dissonance arises - how to reconcile the idea of ​​decentralization with such a level of government control? Although, I think the film will carefully avoid this topic.

However, it is interesting to watch how cryptocurrencies become heroes of films. After all, before, all the attention was taken by bankers, social networks and iPhones. Apparently, cryptocurrencies have finally entered the mainstream.

Let's see what they filmed there. Maybe they'll actually say something new, and not just polish their public image.
