Tether is once again dismissing allegations that it has been utilizing its USDT stablecoin to manipulate Bitcoin’s (BTC) price.

According to a report from Cointelegraph on Feb. 28, iFinex, the firm behind Tether, claims that the accusations in the market manipulation lawsuit against the firm are “reckless and false.”

A lot of the accusations facing Tether are based off the academic paper “Is Bitcoin Really Un-tethered?” by John M. Griffin and Amin Shams. The paper stated that Tether influenced Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency prices during the 2017 boom.
