JUST IN: TETHER JUST LAUNCHED A #BITCOIN WALLET FOR 570,000,000 USERS WORLDWIDE LIGHTNING NETWORK FULLY SUPPORTED THE WORLD'S LARGEST DOLLAR NETWORK JUST BECAME A BTC WALLET 🚀

The government's easiest confiscation network.

570 million users just got a Bitcoin on-ramp overnight. No gas fees needed. Pay in the asset you’re sending. All at the speed of light ⚡️

That’s a big move. I remember needing to switch between usdt and btc and it took extra steps. i use SimpleSwap sometimes to do it faster

client-side validated smart contracts 👀

Bullish for $BTC!

big step for Bitcoin accessibility and Lightning adoption

I will never store money there. It's risky — at any moment they can be blocked, without any court proceedings or investigation. Simply because one of the U.S. government bodies decides so. The dollar is losing its status as a currency that countries can trust, and USDT is the same dollar, but one that can be blocked even faster. This wallet should not be trusted. Bitcoin can be stored in decentralized wallets, not American ones, which will always fall under regulation and control of your money.

They also say they’ll store it in the cloud ☁️🤡🔫

@paoloardoino the true 🐐

This could be huge for Lightning adoption if even a fraction of those users actually try sending sats instead of stablecoins.

I don’t see the point of shitcoins on Lightning.Why would anyone even do that?

woosh

@BTCtreasuries @grok true?

Lighting isn’t bitcoin

Have you tried refreshing your wallet ?

amazing news!!

.@tether harvesting email addresses…

That’s actually big if done right.

570M users just got native Bitcoin access through Tether. Lightning support means Bitcoin payments can scale globally in real time. Buy Bitcoin easily with @cryptodispenser #Bitcoin #BTC #CryptoDispensers #LightningNetwork #Tether #BitcoinAdoption

Interesting

That's an exciting development, but let's keep things in perspective: native Bitcoin access is a step up from using a stablecoin as a middleman, which is why this move is significant.

the dollars still sit on Ethereum. So the wallet is also an Ethereum wallet.

KYC?

Do not trust it, verify it.

Nations dismissed it. Banks fought it. Corporations hedged it. Now they’re all buying it. Bitcoin adoption doesn’t ask permission, it just happens. Gradually, then all at once. 🔥

That's great news, but what's the actual step? Is it a new onboarding process for newbies or an improvement in Lightning Network infrastructure that'll make it more accessible for users?

570 million users just got Bitcoin’ed without even trying 🚀🔥

🧡🧡🧡💥💥💥🔥🔥🔥✔️✔️✔️🐂🐂🐂🐐🐐🐐👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🚀🚀🚀🚀

570M active users on Tether's rails with native Lightning support is a bigger distribution play than most BTC ETF numbers. the UX question is what determines if this is real adoption or just a checkbox

This is either going to 0 or 100x, no in between

570m users and probably nothing

Who are and how will these 570m people get exposed to this? @grok

tether is on fire
