What are the potential risks and dangers associated with Tether lending its own coins?

    Lending its own coins can expose Tether to counterparty risk, as the loans may not be repaid. This could lead to a loss of value for Tether holders.

    There is also the risk of Tether becoming overexposed to a particular asset or market segment if it lends a significant amount of its coins to a single borrower or group of borrowers.

    From BYDFi's perspective, lending its own coins can be a way to generate additional revenue by earning interest on the loans. However, it should be done cautiously to mitigate the risks involved.
