<p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmcoiiXEfH9tn9ErXgnqY5YVeVjuz2FKfaEmxWuqUtA1QP/S116-00th.jpg</p> <p>Will withdrawing from Bitfinex and avoiding Tether save us a ton of money on the next cryptocurrency crash? We will show a little bit of evidence for it and look at some alternatives for how to reposition in case this is accurate. Thank you to @lexiconical for making us aware of this possibility at https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@lexiconical/red-alert-mt-gox-2-0-brewing-bitfinex-may-be-issuing-unbacked-tether-to-paper-over-banking-service-loss-what-we-think-we-know. </p> <h2><strong>Bitfinex + Tether = Cryptocurrency Crash?</strong></h2> <p> <br />Long story short, in my opinion, the combination of <a href="https://www.bitfinex.com/"><em>Bitfinex</em></a> plus <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/"><em>Tether</em></a> looks like a crash coming, a crash coming for everything that's on <em>Bitfinex,</em> a crash coming even for <em>Tether</em> and potentially for some of the other currencies that aren't even directly affected.</p> <p>The <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/steem/">price of <em>Steem</em></a> might crash even though it's not on <em>Bitfinex</em> or traded in <em>Tether.</em> It just might crash because of the <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/"><em>Bitcoin</em> price</a>.</p> <p>However, I feel holding any <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/"><em>Bitcoin</em></a><em>, </em><a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/"><em>Ethereum</em></a><em>, </em><a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/eos/"><em>EOS</em></a> or <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/iota/"><em>IOTA</em></a> makes us extremely vulnerable, especially if we've gotten it on <em>Bitfinex,</em> because <em>Bitfinex</em> is the main place or one of the main places these four cryptocurrencies are traded. A <em>Bitfinex</em> crash equals all of these also crashing.</p> <p>I will first show a little bit of the evidence. Now, lots of things like this are just gut feelings and guesses, and in <em>10</em> years you could say that I was totally wrong or totally right.</p> <p>The question is, which one is more helpful?</p> <p>If you want to hedge your bets, I would absolutely say, <em>"Do something besides holding Tether at all costs. Have some diversification on that."</em></p> <p>Take a look at the <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/"><em>USDT</em></a><em>,</em> this is the abbreviation for <em>Tether</em>.</p> <p>Let's look at some of these recent news stories.</p> <p><em>https://steemitimages.com/DQmPoQPp3TRaYXLpySiqF46JYGrBn21H5ffGAhbukfftcz6/S116-01.jpg</em></p> <p><em>"Tether presses bring another 50 million to the market."</em></p> <p><em>"Tether shenanigans continue as supply increases."</em></p> <p><em>"Tether claims 30 million dollars in US dollars token."</em></p> <p><em>"Tether coming to the rescue as Bitcoin slides below."</em></p> <p><em>https://steemitimages.com/DQmaMgQiEsgTW3Lgu2wiBkQSGh95i7tUj12QSp3HFX2ghw1/S116-02.jpg</em></p> <p><em>"The story of Tether is becoming stranger."</em></p> <p>Stranger equals bad.</p> <p><em>"Tether continues to issue USDT at an alarming rate."</em></p> <p><em>"Tethers' USDT affects more markets than Bitcoin alone."</em></p> <p>I'm just reading these news stories in the order they've appeared in <em>Google.</em> I just did this beforehand and I haven't even seen some of these.</p> <p><em>"Tether issued another 20 million US Dollar Tether tokens."</em></p> <p><em>"Tether update, 30 million stolen."</em></p> <p><em>"Tether controversy and mystery."</em></p> <p>Now, a huge section of the entire market is currently relying on this strange cryptocurrency named <a href="https://tether.to/"><em>Tether</em></a><em>.</em></p> <p>It gets worse, much worse when we look at this <a href="https://www.coindesk.com/tether-claims-30-million-stable-token-stolen-attacker/">little news story</a>, and I've also heard this from several other people.</p> <p><em>https://steemitimages.com/DQmX9oDsxwe9k3vUeDZWHYo3v8MNEf4YnfaDGLNigrpnoEg/S116-03.jpg</em></p> <p><em>"Tether the company behind the dollar pegged cryptocurrency…"</em></p> <p><a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/"><em>Tether</em></a> is supposedly worth a dollar, but what happens if that doesn't work. What happened recently, <em>"Tether blamed a malicious action by an external hacker."</em></p> <p>Interesting!</p> <p><em>"Theft of 30 million dollars’ worth of Tether."</em></p> <p>This just happened a few days ago, maybe <em>10 </em>to <em>20</em> days ago.</p> <p>This is on <a href="https://www.coindesk.com/"><em>Coindesk.com</em></a><em>,</em> a fairly reputable cryptocurrency website, but everything has its ups and downs.</p> <p>Now, let's look down, here's a nice little line.</p> <p><em>https://steemitimages.com/DQmaQtNzeRjjx35mMX9Q2eCfXNASJ8EiwBT5YGN1SVFzKC3/S116-04.jpg</em></p> <p><em>"Unclear relationship between Tether and the troubled British Islands-based Bitcoin exchange Bitfinex."</em></p> <p><em>"Long-standing allegations the exchange has been using the asset exchange in fraud and market manipulation."</em></p> <p><em>"Complicating matters is that the companies are said to share a common ownership."</em></p> <p>That's really, really, really bad when I'm about to show you this data.</p> <p>Now, <em>Tether,</em> if you are just casually trading on something like, let's say <em>Bittrex</em> over here.</p> <p>Let's just say that you're trading on <a href="https://bittrex.com/"><em>Bittrex</em></a> and you just see that there's this little <em>dollar sign</em> at the top, and you think, <em>"Okay. Well, I'll just use this little market here."</em></p> <p>You scroll down and see that it is <em>USDT.</em></p> <p><em>"Okay, Cool. This is about like a US dollar, right? It's about the same as the US dollar."</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmZfn6W1K66kXRKEvJNdAkAUHk2YEqtJxnzMpXmMDsjAUr/S116-05.jpg</p> <p>Well, these are all <em>Tether</em> markets.</p> <p><a href="https://bittrex.com/"><em>Bittrex</em></a> and <a href="https://poloniex.com/"><em>Poloniex</em></a> among other exchanges, two of the biggest, have a lot of volume on <em>Tether,</em> but <em>Tether</em> is not real money, especially when you consider who owns <em>Tether.</em></p> <p>When we take a look at this, I just logged into my <a href="https://www.bitfinex.com/"><em>Bitfinex</em></a> account. As you can see, I'm a <em>"United States"</em> customer.</p> <p><em>https://steemitimages.com/DQmU2EfufGJGgHcTy5LFLK2jCfFY8GEzGhUvMjyAQBDutBg/S116-06.jpg</em></p> <p><em>"Your account is flagged as belonging to an individual who is a United States resident. Please be advised that Bitfinex is terminating its relationship with US individuals. US individuals must cease trading and funding activity."</em></p> <p>Now, hold on, hold on!</p> <p>Wait a minute.</p> <p>Now, that looks really bad when combined with this news story, but let me just show you something else.</p> <p>Let's look at the markets for <em>Tether</em> here: <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/#markets"><em>https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/#markets</em></a><em>.</em></p> <p><em>Tether</em> is traded on by the two main sites, <em>Bittrex</em> and <em>Poloniex.</em></p> <p>Then, there is a <em>Chinese Bitcoin</em> exchange, I believe, and more <em>Asian</em> exchanges.</p> <p>Now, whoa!</p> <p>Hold on.</p> <p><em>Bitfinex</em> is number six with <em>45 million dollars</em> from <em>US dollars</em> to <em>Tether</em> within the last <em>24 hours.</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmc2rGwmayagFGsuRMA5u1Gxeyo5fgNq3MM5pjKrCjLLVy/S116-07.jpg</p> <p>Now, hold on!</p> <p>The number one place I can actually turn a <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/"><em>Tether</em></a> into a real dollar is on a website that is not accepting <em>US</em> customers.</p> <p>The <em>US</em> government issues <em>US</em> dollars, last time I checked. Now, <a href="https://www.bitfinex.com/"><em>Bitfinex</em></a> is the main place to change <em>US dollars</em> to <em>Tether</em> and back and forth. How am I going to change ultimately?</p> <p>If you can't change <em>US dollars</em> and <em>Tether</em> back and forth for <em>$1,</em> the whole <em>Tether</em> system breaks down.</p> <p>I'm going to say that again because it's really important.</p> <p>If <em>Tether</em> cannot be exchanged for one actual <em>US dollar,</em> which can be withdrawn into a bank account, then it's all imaginary.</p> <p>Then, it's all just whatever the market offers for it, and that's a huge problem.</p> <p>If you consider these exchanges here, <em>Tether</em> is being used as a way to trade back and forth with <em>$1.</em></p> <p>Let's just look at the <em>USD/Tether</em> on <em>Bittrex, </em>my favorite exchange for just trading altcoins.</p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmWD88rVouKBT8ZoQ5D6UAvxhTLxxu6pLmSokLATaXawBf/S116-08.jpg</p> <p>That means every time someone is buying and selling, someone is on each end of the trade. That means there is a ton of <em>Tether</em> on <em>Bittrex,</em> there is a lot of <em>Tether</em> on <em>Poloniex.</em></p> <p>That means a large part of the price is based on what <em>Tether</em> is trading for because a ton of the volume are trades in <em>Tether.</em></p> <p>Now, you will notice that the next website you can use is <a href="https://www.kraken.com/"><em>Kraken</em></a><em>.</em></p> <p>However, how easy would it be for <em>Kraken</em> to remove the <em>USDT/USD</em> trading pair?</p> <p>That's a very small number of exchanges and you can see there was a fairly small volume of <em>Tether</em> to the <em>US dollar</em> on <em>Kraken.</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmYLeV4Fszb4HkEcJXNLsaXS7NQyUk68Nnr6BVQMbEpngQ/S116-09.jpg</p> <p>If you're looking, it's not very easy to turn <em>Tether</em> into real <em>US dollars.</em> It's very easy for the price of <em>Tether</em> and the entire <em>Tether</em> blockchain to become a complete disaster where the price of <em>Tether</em> all of a sudden could go to <em>50 cents</em> if there's a crash on <em>Bitfinex.</em></p> <p>Right now, this whole <em>Bitfinex</em> game is a house of cards, and the house of cards comes down if someone actually reveals what's really going on there and leaks that out. There are all kinds of ways for this mess at <em>Bitfinex</em> to leave the whole market down.</p> <p>Now, it gets even worse, I will show you something else.</p> <p>Out of all the exchanges, <em>Bitfinex</em> is number one and it's largely on imaginary money.</p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmTZiKs7HEKQXQkKrigGs6kPq5vch3tbFMA6ySr8ZAZyQ6/S116-10.jpg</p> <p>One of the main places that trading is going on is <em>Bitfinex, </em>but they already had a huge hack a year ago, and the question is, are we going to see another one?</p> <p>Right now, a ton of volume on <em>Bitfinex.</em> A billion dollars in <em>24 hours</em> back and forth between <em>Bitcoin</em> on what is, in my opinion, a completely sketchy <em>US dollar.</em></p> <p>Whether you can actually get a <em>US dollar</em> out of <em>Bitfinex</em> is very questionable given <em>Bitfinex's</em> relationship with the banks, given this disclaimer that is on <em>Bitfinex's</em> own website.</p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmV52kfzr7mCKtZRtr4U8gpHVYJntvtA3QP1hsxkwVaYj7/S116-11.jpg</p> <p>This is what's on their website, this is what I get when I log in. I don't trust that at all. I don't trust it at all, and you're telling me this is the number one exchange in terms of volume?</p> <p>Everything that's being exchanged on here is at risk of a huge crash as well because for most of these, <a href="https://www.bitfinex.com/"><em>Bitfinex</em></a> is also the number one volume.</p> <p>If we look at <em>Bitcoin,</em> <em>Bitfinex</em> is <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/#markets">the number one volume</a>. If we look at <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/iota/"><em>IOTA</em></a><em>,</em> I haven't even looked at this yet, but sometimes you don't have to look, you can just know you're right.</p> <p><em>IOTA,</em> <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/iota/#markets">number one place</a>, it is being traded almost four times as much as anywhere else is on <em>Bitfinex.</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmSgobHKc2JDmrttmpj9WmBRerhcSfgEBveAorn2grx2oT/S116-12.jpg</p> <p>Let's do it again for <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/"><em>Ethereum</em></a><em>.</em> I don't know if it is number one on <em>Ethereum,</em> we will find out. It's probably number one or number two on markets.</p> <p><em>"Oh, </em><a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/#markets"><em>Bitfinex is number one</em></a><em> on Ethereum!"</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmYtThiqCQgsyQ2G1GiRnUKhcNKf3wcnBfrqjCFut3jNyU/S116-13.jpg</p> <p>What's <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin-cash/"><em>Bitcoin Cash</em></a> being traded on?</p> <p>Well, <em>Bitcoin Cash</em> is actually being traded on lots of other markets, but <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin-cash/#markets">it's also up there</a> significantly on <em>Bitfinex.</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmec8e4fAX4q8eUEeGGqYYjvQx8EVxE6GDyaRqkfLU5NAG/S116-14.jpg</p> <p>Then we go down here to <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/eos/"><em>EOS</em></a><em>.</em></p> <p>Where's the <em>EOS</em> being traded?</p> <p><em>EOS</em> is being traded <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/eos/#markets">mostly on or significantly on <em>Bitfinex</em></a><em>.</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmf2GRP1bc776JARnVMDhMAEZNL3FBSeqzYp7Zt7wpEnHg/S116-15.jpg</p> <p>If you're looking at this data, this does not look good. The <em>US dollar </em>versus <em>Tether,</em> the <em>Tether</em> problems, and then <em>Bitfinex</em> suddenly putting this disclaimer up and not allowing <em>US</em> customers to participate anymore, this looks really sketchy.</p> <p>Combined with <em>Bitfinex</em> being hacked before, combined with <em>Bitfinex</em> losing banking before, combined with <em>Bitfinex's</em> lack of transparency about exactly how much money is in their account versus how much money they're supposed to have on hand for customers, this is looking like it's all going to come down with a combination of <em>Bitfinex</em> and <em>Tether.</em></p> <p>I would imagine at some point that there will be some problem with withdrawals on <em>Bitfinex</em> if there's not already. Someone will put in a massive withdrawal on <em>Bitfinex</em>, another hack or something will happen, and then there'll be a big selling wave.</p> <p>The problem will come in during a selling wave because right now while everyone's buying it's all good. We're popping bottles or whatever, we're celebrating. We're making money and I wouldn't be surprised if <em>Bitfinex</em> is just trying to go through all this period of success and hope that all the mistakes and all the problems can essentially be made up for by all the new money coming in, and maybe that will work.</p> <p>I wouldn't want to have everything on <em>Bitfinex</em> though.</p> <p>Maybe it will work, maybe everything will come through just fine, maybe there won't be any crash, maybe it will all work out just fine.</p> <p>Right now, it looks extremely delicate. I certainly wouldn't want to have a bunch of money on <em>Bitfinex</em> when <em>Bitfinex</em> is not allowing <em>US</em> customers to trade anymore, who suddenly just after losing banking and who also has a mysterious and sketchy relationship with <em>Tether,</em> which pretty much allows, in theory, <em>Bitfinex</em> to just print new <em>Tether</em> as desired.</p> <p><em>https://steemitimages.com/DQmSy1JRcg59mzsrdeBK1V1SFcCecQAyaytv9FjXa2NATLP/S116-16.jpg</em></p> <p><em>Bitfinex,</em> if they wanted to, could just sit there and double lend.</p> <p><em>"I'll lend you this dollar Tether. I'll lend you this."</em></p> <p>The <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/"><em>Tether</em></a> could be lent out <em>10</em> or <em>20</em> times against an actual <em>US</em> dollar on hand. I don't see any way looking at the data that there's actually that much <em>US</em> dollars available against the <em>US</em> dollar <em>Tether,</em> and the problem will be whenever the selling wave happens and people want to cash out. That could be triggered by a news story, it could be triggered by a hack, whenever that happens, if you got your money in <em>Tether</em> and <em>Bitfinex,</em> you may discover, <em>"Oh, oh. I can't turn this into real money,"</em> or whatever rate I'm going to get is drastically reduced.</p> <p>These little <em>USD/USDT </em>markets on here, all of a sudden the price could absolutely blow up. On <em>Coinbase</em> it might be <em>$11,000</em> for <em>Bitcoin,</em> but on <em>Bitfinex </em>for a <em>USDT</em> it might be <em>$25,000</em> to change your <em>USDT</em> to <em>BTC.</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmRgnPfR2mMftAfQKTC3UW8GxFDbSVH42hBEYaVgLCANaJ/S116-17.jpg</p> <p>The prices for these could essentially blow up at any moment.</p> <p>Therefore, I encourage diversification when it comes to <em>Tether.</em> I would say this is the area where there's almost no diversification.</p> <p>I've talked to so many traders that are diversified on things like <em>Bitcoin.</em></p> <p><em>"While I'm not holding all in Bitcoin, I've got some Bitcoin, I've got some Ethereum, I've got some Steem, I've got some NEO,"</em> and then all that's being traded back and forth between <em>Tether.</em></p> <p>Then often when big profits are made, when you've made a killing because you were right and you sell all that on <em>Bittrex,</em> you're just holding it in <em>Tether</em> because you don't want to lose any money and you're waiting for something to buy into or you're waiting for another downtime to buy.</p> <p>The problem is there's probably a ton of <em>Tether</em> just sitting on the sidelines on here having sold out of these high prices, and then when there's some kind of issue or a price crash, your inability to cash out, there won't be any way to turn that into the amount of money it was supposed to be.</p> <p>If I had any <em>US dollar Tether</em> or just <em>Tether</em> for short — it looks like the <em>US dollar Tether</em> because it's <em>USDT —</em> if I had any of that I'd get rid of it. I wouldn't hold any of that right now.</p> <p>I have nothing on <em>Bitfinex.</em></p> <p>Technically, maybe I have four dollars here or something. I've cleaned out my <em>Bitfinex</em> account. I don't trust <em>Bitfinex</em> because of banning <em>US</em> customers. This is, in my opinion, a clear sign of sketchy behavior. It's the same thing most of us do in person. If we know we're deserving of getting in trouble, if we know we've done a lot of things wrong, then what do we try to do?</p> <p>We start trying to protect ourselves.</p> <p>If we feel like we're a good person and we trust other people, we don't need to be protecting ourselves all the time.</p> <p>I know, when I felt like I was a bad person, I needed things like guns, I needed things like baseball bats, I needed all these protections all the time.</p> <p>I needed knives around in case someone came in and I couldn't get to my gun, I needed a shotgun, a rifle and a pistol just in case I couldn't get to one, or just for each different situation.</p> <p>When I felt like I was a bad person, when I knew I was doing a lot of things wrong, I felt like I needed to protect myself from other people.</p> <p><em>https://steemitimages.com/DQmZFvw7zbqbSU1G19icjfjnJBpeohLxVHpZDJD2y6eWgxi/S116-18.jpg</em></p> <p><em>Bitfinex</em> pulling out of the <em>US</em> is, in my opinion, a clear admission of wrong, and it's a desire to then protect itself.</p> <p><em>Bitfinex</em> is essentially saying, <em>"We've done a lot of things wrong and we're scared of the US government. We're scared of our customers in the US finding out what we've done, suing us, and we're going to pull out. We're just going to pull out right now. We're essentially going to just hold on to any US customers that weren't paying attention and left money."</em></p> <p>If you read the way they do it, if you're a <em>US</em> customer you may or may not be able to actually get your money back. By <em>Bitfinex</em> just doing this, it is essentially going to be able to just keep any <em>US</em> customers not paying attention. <em>Bitfinex</em> will essentially just be able to keep all those <em>US</em> dollars, all those customers' money and not have to pay that back.</p> <p>That's sketchy.</p> <p>That's not trustworthy.</p> <p>I'm saying this out of love because I'm very grateful that <a href="https://www.bitfinex.com/"><em>Bitfinex</em></a> has made it so easy to trade. <em>Bitfinex </em>has empowered exchanging all these different currencies and I'm grateful for that. I've used <em>Bitfinex </em>and I made tutorials on it. I put it my courses.</p> <p>I love <em>Bitfinex.</em></p> <p>Don't get it twisted.</p> <p>I love Bitfinex.</p> <p>I'm telling this to <em>Bitfinex</em> as someone out of love,<em> "Look, you're messing up. You're slipping. You need to do better. You need to get honest and start telling everyone all these bad things. You need to just get these out there and stop hiding all these messed up things that are going on behind the scenes. You need to get honest with the customers and with the community. You need to tell us why you're pulling out of the US. What are you scared of? What are you afraid of?"</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmdzsoZ4i6ttboQse4DCeEAUYvDargpmPTSrmtGcbhQkg3/S116-19.jpg</p> <p>That's what needs to happen for me to have essentially, a restored relationship with <em>Bitfinex</em>.</p> <p>Until then, I'm calling it like I see it: <em>Bitfinex </em>and <em>Tether's </em>going down.</p> <p>I'm yelling timber, <em>"It's going down!"</em></p> <p>I'd get everything off of <em>Bitfinex</em>. I'd get rid of all the <em>Tether</em> before it's too late because once it's too late, you lose everything or almost everything.</p> <p>That's my advice.</p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmWGgSYwgNR7C5UWv8wdWWoSBkTcGLXYtzZvRTn1hNQUi2/S116-20.jpg</p> <p>I'm not right in the short-term lots of times and that's fine. I see what I did before and how things are today. I said to sell <em>EOS</em> at <em>50 cents</em> and it's <em>$3 </em>today. I'm not right about everything and that's okay. I'm human.</p> <p>You saw this for a reason today.</p> <p>You didn't see this by accident.</p> <p>You didn't make it all the way to the end of this post by accident. Maybe this is a message you need to avoid that big train coming, and running over your investments in your cryptocurrency on <em>Bitfinex,</em> that maybe is being held in <em>Tether</em> somewhere else, I don't know.</p> <p>Maybe you've gotten through this and you said, <em>"He's wrong. I'm going to put everything into Bitfinex and I'm going to dump it all into Tether right now."</em></p> <p>Good! Good!</p> <p>Because I'm already following my own advice.</p> <p>If you want a suggestion, I think <em>Steem</em> is a really good thing to put in. I've got all my money in <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/steem/"><em>Steem</em></a> and <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/steem-dollars/"><em>Steem Dollars</em></a><em>.</em></p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmPwwCbAqqw9gx8jK8EnrKVoxYFvRHR9pgkBmuZ8oNp5RJ/S116-22.jpg</p> <p>If you're looking for an alternative to <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/tether/"><em>USDT</em></a><em>,</em> I think <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/steem-dollars/"><em>Steem Dollars</em></a> is a really good one, and the more <em>Steem Dollars</em> pumps the more <em>Steem</em> pumps too.</p> <p>https://steemitimages.com/DQmYu4gCXbAzSV9ZkGySfLU6VcBfJgexH6Awvzj581h4F2u/S116-21.jpg</p> <p>There you go, that's it.</p> <p>I love you.</p> <p>You're awesome.</p> <p>Thanks for getting all the way to the end of this post.
