I don't recall him ever being against Tether. I can see how someone might think that - he associates with people who seem like they have been against Tether. Regardless, Tether is allocating more money into Bitcoin stuff than any single entity, so expect to see more people who you thought were against Tether, or who would otherwise be against Tether, suddenly become pro-Tether.

Yeah, I don't know if he mentioned it in his podcast a while back or in some video on YouTube, just felt like he would be against it based on his standards of being Bitcoin-only. However, Strike does use USDT for deposits/withdrawals in certain countries. So, I would guess that might disprove my prior statement.

You are correct. Pretty sure I have heard him explain this a few times. The reality is that in the US Strike uses fiat dollars and in other countries Tether is popular. I get why they are doing this.
