JPMorgan claimed that the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), a financial intelligence and enforcement agency affiliated with the US Treasury Department, could exercise control over Tether (USDT) even though it is not a US entity.
In a report published Thursday, a team of analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou noted that “US regulators may exercise some control over offshore use of Tether through OFAC.” They cited Tether's relationship with Tornado Cash, a privacy enhancement platform on the Ethereum network, as an example of this control.

Ardoino continued his words as follows:
<blockquote>
 “If I were them, I would be more concerned about their total fines of $39 billion.”
</blockquote>

*This is not investment advice.
