Fact Check
The assessment is "likely_true" because the core elements of the statement are strongly supported by high-authority evidence, despite a discrepancy in the exact amount. The most relevant and authoritative source, a social media post from the blockchain tracker Whale Alert, confirms a very large transaction of 100,000,000 USDT from Bitfinex to the Tether Treasury. This matches the sender, receiver, and asset type mentioned in the statement, and the amount is of a similar magnitude.Other high-authority sources, such as Whale Alert's Telegram channel and the Coinglass data platform, also confirm a transfer between these specific parties, further corroborating that such an event occurred. The discrepancy between the stated 110 million USDT and the reported 100 million USDT is likely due to a minor misreporting or rounding of the figure. The fundamental event—a transfer of roughly 100 million USDT from Bitfinex to Tether Treasury—is well-documented. Most other sources provided are irrelevant to this specific transaction. Because the substance of the claim is verified by credible sources, the statement is considered likely to be true, with the numerical inaccuracy noted.
