Tether rejected JPMorgan’s Bitcoin sale claims, citing strong reserves and ongoing regulatory discussions. Tether, the issuer of the USDt stablecoin, has rejected claims from JPMorgan analysts suggesting it may need to sell Bitcoin to comply with potential U.S. stablecoin regulations. A February 12th report led by JPMorgan strategist Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou suggested that proposed U.S. laws could require Tether to adjust its reserves, potentially selling some of its Bitcoin holdings. Two legislative proposals are currently under discussion: JPMorgan analysts noted that the STABLE Act proposes stricter reserve requirements, limiting stablecoin issuers to insured deposits, U.S. Treasury bills, short-term Treasury repos, and central bank reserves. The GENIUS Act allows additional reserve assets such as money market funds and reverse repos. The JPMorgan report stated that Tether’s reserves are 66% compliant under the STABLE Act and 83% under the GENIUS Act, meaning adjustments would be necessary under the proposed rules. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino responded to JPMorgan analysts’ claims with a mix of criticism and confidence in Tether’s financial position. In a series of posts on X, Ardoino suggested that JPMorgan analysts are frustrated about not holding enough Bitcoin. JPM analysts are salty because they don’t own Bitcoin. Tether analysts say that JPM does not have enough Bitcoin Addressing the broader regulatory concerns, Ardoino emphasized that stablecoin legislation is still under discussion and that many details remain to be defined in upcoming consultations. He reassured that even in a worst-case scenario, Tether’s group equity exceeds $20 billion in highly liquid assets and generates over $1.2 billion in quarterly profits from U.S. Treasuries, excluding other investments and activities. He concluded by asserting that Tether has one of the best risk management strategies in the industry and reiterated that JPMorgan’s stance may stem from “missing the Bitcoin train.” While a lot still needs to be defined during consultations on the bills in coming weeks, even in the most extreme scenario, JPMorgan discounts the fact that Tether’s group equity (on top of stablecoin reserves) is over $20 billion in other very liquid assets and is generating… Reporting on the Bitcoin news you care about

World events are unfolding at an unprecedented pace, and for those who view history through a biblical lens, the connections to prophecy are undeniable. From political power shifts to eerie symbolic moments, the headlines seem to echo the warnings and revelations found in Scripture. As believers, we are called to be watchful, discerning, and steadfast in understanding the times. One of the most striking recent developments is President Donald Trump’s stern warning to Hamas: release the hostages or face devastating consequences. His words—“all hell will break loose”—weren’t just rhetoric. They had a tangible effect, as Hamas quickly reversed course and resumed the hostage releases that had been stalled. While this situation is playing out on the world stage in political and military terms, it is impossible to ignore the spiritual weight behind it. Even former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee referred to Trump’s impact in the region as “in biblical proportions.” Gaza has been a spiritual battleground for centuries. Historically known as Philistia, it was home to the enemies of Israel, including the infamous Philistine giants. The wars that raged in David’s time are echoed in the conflicts of today, and it raises the question: are we witnessing another significant chapter in the struggle between God’s people and the forces that oppose them? Breaking News. Spirit-Filled Stories. Subscribe to Charisma on YouTube now! Adding to the intrigue is an unusual image that surfaced during Hamas’ propaganda surrounding the hostage releases—a resistance fist with six fingers. While some may dismiss it as an artistic error, believers familiar with biblical history might recognize a deeper significance. In 2 Samuel 21, one of the Philistine giants, a descendant of Anak, is described as having six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot. The Anakim were among the ancient giants that the Israelites encountered—descendants of the Nephilim, the beings mentioned in Genesis 6. The spiritual implications of their existence were immense, tied directly to the corruption and rebellion seen throughout history. Was this six-fingered fist merely a mistake, or was it a subtle manifestation of a deeper, unseen principality? In a world where spiritual warfare is constant, it’s worth considering. Pre-order James Lasher’s newest book, “The Revelation of Jesus” on MyCharisma Shop! The Bible speaks of territorial spirits—demonic principalities that exert influence over specific regions. In Daniel 10, the “Prince of Persia” is described as a spiritual force opposing God’s angels. These powers do not simply fade away over time; they remain entrenched. Gaza, once home to the Philistines, has long been such a stronghold. Even during Israel’s most triumphant periods, the region was never fully subdued. Now, in 2025, the U.S. is stepping into the situation in a significant way. Could this be a fulfillment of biblical prophecy? Is this a pivotal moment in Israel’s history, one that will lead to a reshaping of its borders or even a united Israel? As history unfolds before our eyes, it is crucial to remain watchful and prayerful. The battles we see are not just political or military conflicts—they are deeply spiritual.

Jesus instructed His followers to recognize the signs of the times. In 1 Chronicles 12:32, the sons of Issachar were praised for understanding the times and knowing what Israel should do. That same discernment is needed now more than ever. Prophecy is not meant to be observed passively. It should lead to action—prayer, repentance, evangelism and a renewed commitment to faith.
