US DOJ to investigate Tether executives over bank fraud
According to Bloomberg, A U.S. investigation into Tether is trying to determine whether the executives behind the digital token committed bank fraud. This potential criminal case could have major implications for the cryptocurrency market.
Criminal charges could have an impact on the crypto market
The Justice Department's investigation focuses on conduct that occurred years ago when Tether was in its infancy. Specifically, federal prosecutors investigate whether Tether chose to conceal from banks that transactions were linked to crypto, said three people with direct knowledge of the matter, who did not want to be named because the investigation is confidential.Since Tether's USDT stablecoin is the most widely used stablecoin and plays an essential role in crypto trading, criminal charges could have an impact on the cryptocurrency market. It would also be one of the largest events in the U.S. government's crackdown on virtual currencies.
The investigation is reaching a tipping point
Federal prosecutors have been investigating Tether since at least 2018. According to the Bloomberg article, they have sent letters to individuals warning them that they are targets of the investigation. One of the individuals told the news site that the notices signal that a decision on whether to proceed could be made soon, with high-ranking Justice Department officials ultimately deciding whether charges are warranted.Due to increasing regulatory pressure in the cryptocurrency market, the investigation is reaching a tipping point. The U.S. Treasury Department and Federal Reserve are among the agencies concerned that tokens could threaten financial stability and disguise transactions linked to money laundering, for example. Criminals would be able to make payments without going through the regulated banking system. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said last week that regulators "need to act quickly" when considering new rules for stablecoins.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
