Tether insists it has liquidated Celsius’s collateral for the loan, so is unaffected by the current crisis.
In a blog post published on July 8, the company behind the largest stablecoin in the cryptocurrency market, Tether, confirmed that it is not affected by the Celsius lending platform experiencing liquidity difficulties.
Tether admitted Celsius borrowed an undisclosed amount from them but requested a Bitcoin collateral value of up to 130% of the loan. After Celsius became insolvent, Tether liquidated the entire amount of this collateral, so it was not involved.
The company further revealed that it has made an investment in Celsius shares, but the value is not large. Along with Three Arrows Capital, Celsius is recently one of two crypto organizations that are directly causing a liquidity crisis in the cryptocurrency market.
On July 7, Celsius unexpectedly returned a 224 million DAI loan to Maker, then transferred the entire amount of WBTC worth $510 million to the FTX exchange with a high probability of being sold. The motives and next moves of Celsius are still unknown.
The Tether company has also been under pressure recently from the negative news circulating in the market about the issue of escrow for USDT, causing the price of this stablecoin to fall off the $1 peg in a short time.
