A massive freeze has once again drawn market attention to the legal risks of on-chain assets. A well-known group’s founder was recently arrested in Southeast Asia and has been repatriated. Although the group's banking, real estate, and other sectors continue to operate, multiple lawsuits in the US and Singapore pose serious challenges — most notably, the US Department of Justice has frozen 127,000 Bitcoins of the group, worth approximately $15 billion. The lesson for crypto asset holders is that no matter the size of the assets, once cross-border legal disputes are involved, the risk of freezing is very real. Market observers point out that such incidents highlight the importance of compliant operations and asset structure.
