11,263 addresses now frozen across Ethereum and TRON

When October 28, 2026 ended, our monitoring counted 11,263 addresses on Ethereum and TRON still frozen, holding about $3.48B between them. We have recorded 12,626 addresses ever blacklisted on the two networks.

Before you send USDT or USDC to an address, or accept funds from one, paste it into the wallet-risk checker. It shows the risk analysis we hold for that address at assessment time. If the address is frozen or rated high risk, do not send to it. If the result is unclear, add the address to wallet monitoring so we alert you when its status changes, and hold off on moving money until then.
