Bitfinex buys cryptos with them on their own exchange. They get free cryptos, and everybody else gets monopoly money in exchange. Tether is such a scam it's unbelievable.

Bitfinex should then sell that crypto for real USD on other exchanges. They could make a killing and then somehow launder the money so that when the Tether scam is exposed, they are safe with real hard USDs.

I'm guessing the company offers them on some exchange, maybe slightly discounted.
