For the first time, Tether, the largest <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/asia-focused-multi-currency-stablecoin-protocol-bluejay-finance-raises-2-9m-in-funding/">stablecoin</a> issuer in the world, refuted allegations that it was still utilizing Chinese commercial paper. The stablecoin issuer claims that Tether has significantly reduced its exposure to commercial paper over time, from $30 billion at the beginning of the month to $3.7 billion.
<h2>Reserve For Commercial Paper Of Tether</h2>
The short-term unsecured debt regularly issued by any corporation is known as commercial papers. The crypto firms decide the commercial paper's holding value.

Other stablecoins are under investigation for their long-term appropriateness following the failure of the Terra UST stablecoins. Tether now faces the challenge of dispelling allegations that its reserves are highly reliant on Chinese commercial paper.

Tether hasn't, however, officially refuted the claim that it lacks reserves for commercial paper. However, the main argument used by detractors to criticize Tether is its 50% reserve of commercial paper. Critics draw attention to the massive exposure of Chinese commercial paper at 50%.
<h2>Tether (USDT) vs USD Coin (USDC): A Collateral Comparison</h2>
Tether was the clear winner of the two over a year ago. Nevertheless, the market is starting to shift in the USD coin's favor. It is currently the market's fastest-growing alternative coin. Similar to Tether, Circle's stablecoin, introduced in 2018, is tied to the US dollar and has a constant price of $1 at the moment.

There is an equivalent quantity of USD as a reserve and 34.6 billion USDC in circulation today.

Despite USDT's widespread use for transactions and trading, its transparency and security are far inferior to those of USDC. Compared to the USDT, the USD coin is more regulated and has a large reserve. FUD is high for the <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">USDT</a> and low for the <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/usd-coin/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">USDC</a> stablecoin.
