      <pubDate>Tue, 22 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate>
      <description>Holding a governance token is not the same as having a vote, and the vote itself only reaches the admin functions written into the contracts. Where the limits sit, with the published thresholds.</description>

      <pubDate>Sun, 23 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate>
      <description>Tether publishes quarterly assurance opinions, not audits. What the difference means in practice, what the reports cover, and what they do not tell you.</description>
