Fact Check
The evidence strongly supports the truthfulness of the statement. One primary source, a news article from Nairametrics, directly reports on a 110 million USDT transfer to the Tether Treasury. While it attributes the transfer to 'Tether whales' rather than explicitly naming Bitfinex, the destination being the Tether Treasury makes a related entity like Bitfinex the most logical sender.This direct evidence is heavily reinforced by strong contextual and circumstantial evidence from multiple high-authority sources. Several sources establish a clear pattern of large-value transfers from Bitfinex to Tether's treasury, although they mention different assets like Bitcoin. This demonstrates that such transactions between these two entities are commonplace and trackable via on-chain data. Furthermore, multiple sources confirm the close corporate and financial relationship between Bitfinex and Tether, as they are owned by the same parent company, iFinex. This relationship provides a clear rationale for large fund movements between the two. There is no conflicting evidence among the provided sources. The slight ambiguity in the most direct source (using 'whales' instead of 'Bitfinex') is the only factor preventing a higher truth probability, but the weight of the corroborating evidence makes the statement highly likely to be true.
