Senator Richard Blumenthal has requested Binance, Tether, and two Trump-linked crypto firms to begin submitting records by November 30, 2026, with a final deadline of January 4, 2027. Failure to comply may lead to further action, including subpoenas. The inquiry focuses on potential conflicts of interest and the use of USDT by sanctioned entities. Blumenthal's ongoing investigations include a reported $500 million deal involving World Liberty Financial and its ties to Trump's crypto ventures.
