I’m not so sure it will collapse (now), this settlement adds legal clarity. The CFTC has set their parameters in the settlement and will enforce compliance, BitFinex/Tether paid a fine. Tether will be stronger through greater reserve and investment grade requirements, and more transparent.
Nah it certainly doesn't. This only covers up to February 2018. At the time they only had $2B in issued USDT, and of course, they remain under investigation by the DOJ and SEC.
