Could you please elaborate on whether USDT is akin to USD? I'm curious to understand the similarities and differences between these two currencies, if any. I've heard that USDT is a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar, but I'm not entirely sure how it compares to the traditional USD. Could you explain how they function differently, if at all, in the realm of cryptocurrency and finance? Your insights would be greatly appreciated. Is USDT similar to USD?
