700 million dollars can be frozen instantly; where is the decentralized resistance to censorship?

Where did the 239,708 BTC go? You should be able to see it by tracking on the blockchain.

700 million dollars are frozen; if this selling pressure is suddenly released, the market will shake three times.

The U.S. has extended its reach enough; on-chain sanctions have become the new normal.

Only 9,306 tokens remaining after 518 addresses? The transfer efficiency is quite high.

I'm curious about how these addresses will be handled in the end—auctioned off or kept frozen?

On-chain addresses can also be targeted by OFAC, making it harder for mixers to operate in the future.
