In January, Tether blocked three Ethereum addresses with assets worth $160 million at the request of US authorities. The company noted that it actively cooperates with regulators while refusing to name the reason for blacklisting the wallets.
In August, the U Treasury Department banned the Tornado Cash crypto mixer, after which Circle, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin, froze more than 75 000 coins associated with the service’s sanctioned addresses.
On October 6, NFT platform Dapper froze the assets of customers from the Russian Federation on behalf of a partner licensed in the EU. The decision is related to the eighth sanctions package, which completely bans crypto companies from servicing Russians, regardless of the amount of assets on their accounts.
