India’s USDT Premium Soars Amid Crackdown | Bitcoin and Crypto News
Description
India’s Tether stablecoin just hit an 8.5% premium over the dollar — a sharp spike triggered by a major crackdown on crypto payment firms in Bengaluru.

With market makers pulling back and domestic demand still strong, the sudden supply squeeze has sent prices soaring locally as regulators dig into how digital assets are being used to skirt traditional financial systems.
