The lession learned is: Tether now exists as a casino chip central bank. They can just freeze and print more and provide a backstop to the major CEXs.
Of course, Tether runs completely counter to any of the idealistic claims about crypto.
That shouldn't need to be a lesson learned though. Its been obvious from the beginning of tether and reinforced by how interested governments are in the idea of stable coins and CBDCs.
