I myself am guilty of this, I was using USDT and USDC unaware that they buy government treasuries. They buy these government treasuries to back their digitals dollars with it.
By buying treausuries you are basically indirectly lending money to the state government that is currently bombing Yemen as well as Palestinians.
These stable coins have become CBDC'S similar to the way that Google Accounts and Apple Phones have become government tools for data scraping and surveillance.
The best way to avoid this is to use stable coins that are not backed by treasuries.
I just want to bring awareness to something that I was completely unaware of when I was starting off in crypto.
Thanks for reading.
