Tether Takes Down the Hammer Freezing 32 Addresses Linked to Terrorism in Israel and Ukraine

Tether seizes assets from 32 addresses suspected of funding terrorism in Israel and Ukraine

Crypto Criminals Beware: Tether Comes to the Rescue!

  • Stablecoin issuer Tether has unleashed its superhero powers once again! In a breathtaking move, the company has frozen over 30 crypto addresses involved in terrorism and warfare. Talk about fighting crime with blockchain! đź’Ş

  • Hold your horses, folks! These 32 addresses got hit with a mighty freeze ray, courtesy of Tether. And just how much moolah were these miscreants hiding? Brace yourselves, it’s a whopping $800,000! That’s some serious villainous behavior right there. 🦹‍♂️

Tether Freezes Crypto Addresses Linked to Warfare in Ukraine and Israel

In a dazzling display of courage, Tether, the mighty issuer of the USDT stablecoin, has revealed its triumph against cryptocurrency-funded terrorism and warfare. They joined forces with Israel’s National Bureau for Counter-Terror Financing (NBCTF) to bring justice to these cyber criminals.

With a flick of their digital fingers, Tether has frozen those malicious addresses, rendering them powerless to send USDT until the freeze is lifted. These wallets were hiding a colossal $873,118! That’s enough to finance a supervillain’s secret lair! 🦹‍♀️

But wait, there’s more! Tether is the hero we deserve, aiding 31 agencies across 19 jurisdictions. They have locked away a staggering $835 million in assets. Mostly associated with theft and exchange hacks, but hey, they’re not forgetting about other crimes either. Talk about being versatile in the crusade against crooks! 🕵️‍♂️

Tether has formed an unstoppable alliance with several countries including the United States, Brazil, Singapore, Philippines, Germany, South Korea, Norway, Canada, Israel, India, the UK, and Ukraine. Together, they are combating terrorism and warfare funding. Can you feel the unity in the air? 🌍

The CEO of Tether, Paolo Ardoino, stands tall as he emphasizes their relentless commitment to promoting responsible blockchain technology use. With unwavering determination, Tether is a stalwart defender against cybercrime, a beacon of hope for the digital world. They eagerly await further collaborations with global law enforcement agencies in their noble pursuit of global security and financial integrity. 🚀

Hold your breath! This thrilling saga continues! Just last week, Binance, another valiant player in the crypto realm, assisted Israeli police in seizing Hamas-linked crypto wallets. Looks like these superheroes are forming a league to take down the bad guys. Stay tuned for more jaw-dropping adventures! đź’Ą

In November 2022, Tether flexed its muscle by freezing $46 million worth of USDT stablecoins. A law enforcement request led to the freeze, all tied to an FTX wallet during the exchange’s collapse. Talk about a heroic move in the face of chaos! 🦸‍♂️

Now, fellow digital asset investors, let’s raise our glasses and toast to Tether, the champion fighting for a brighter and safer crypto future! If you spot any criminals lurking in the crypto shadows, don’t forget to alert our fearless heroes. Together, we can protect this booming world of digital investments! 🥂✨
