Tether Froze $42 Million on an Informal Request. The Warrant Came Four Months Later
Onuora Amobi critiques the due-process implications of a disputed Tether freeze, while acknowledging that delaying intervention can hinder recovery of stolen funds.
Summary
Onuora Amobi uses the lawsuit over a $42.4 million USDT freeze to question whether informal law-enforcement requests provide adequate safeguards for holders. He acknowledges the practical argument for rapid freezes but argues that speed alone does not resolve mistaken restrictions or access to review. The account relies on disputed allegations about the timing and authority of the freeze; it is commentary, not a judicial finding.
