USDT runs from the British Virgin Islands with quarterly attestations. USDC is a US-listed company with monthly attestations and a Big Four audit. Here is what each setup actually means.
A $15M Bitcoin security consortium forms the same week a cross-chain bridge is drained twice. The ledger tells a story of two very different on-chain maturities.
