I don't really know much about this subject, but why don't you use GDAX instead to trade between USD and BTC or ETH? GDAX doesn't use tether, and i hate the idea of assuming tether has 1to1 value with USD
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
maybe because Bittrex has many more altcoin pairs to trade but yes, GDAX would be an option if you want to trade only BTC, ETH or LTC.
you're right, i didn't consider that there are more usdt to altcoins to trade with on Bittrex. bleh....just use btcs or eth to trade those :)
The ALT/USDT pairings are rather new on Bittrex, the markets are not yet mature. Its safer to trade ETH or BTC pairings with ALT coins at this stage - but that may change over time.
This is a very good idea, I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner. Great advice @oneluckyflip!. I'm mostly concerned that USDT's backing is via Bitfinex since they have ben fined by the Commodities Futures Trading Commission. That explains a lot about Tether and Bitfinex's banking issues, ironically the trading community is worried that Poloniex is insolvent when to me the real issue is the USDOJ could close the doors of Bitfinex for good.
