​🚨 $90M Crypto Theft Lead to Tether Freeze: What You Need to Know
​1️⃣ The Incident: Ledger is investigating reported customer losses ($72M–$90M) linked to reseller CryptoBilis. No breach of Ledger’s internal systems found yet.
2️⃣ Tether Steps In: Tether froze USDT addresses flagged by MistTrack to halt fund movement. Important: A freeze prevents transfers but doesn't guarantee asset recovery.
3️⃣ The Loophole: Attackers bridged some funds into $USDD, proving how attackers bypass centralized freezes by hopping onto decentralised alternatives.
​⚖️ The Big Debate: Is issuer-level control vital security, or does it undermine crypto’s censorship resistance? Unlike $USDT, BTC andETH have no protocol-level freezes.
