So, if Tether _were_ to freeze Tornado Cash addresses, do we have any idea of how bad this would be for Tether? As in, how much of the volume through Tether would be impacted? I'm just speculating here, but is it perhaps the case that Tether cannot afford to freeze Tornado Cash addresses without entering some sort of vicious spiral downwards, as lower volume makes it harder to keep the peg, which makes volume (in) even lower, which makes it even harder to keep the peg, etc.?

Just uninformed speculation, I don't know the crypto space, just throwing it out for the more informed to comment on.
