Senator Blumenthal's "analysis" of Tether's sanctions report misses that, since 2023, Tether froze on average 4 weeks prior to OFAC & NBCTF official sanction designation and for 99% of the times Tether froze the reported addresses before Chainalysis labelled them. Tether actions led to Iran-linked stablecoin volumes declining by 94%. The reality shows that Tether acts fast on new threats thanks to its law enforcement partnerships.
