    HTX Users Suspected of Sending Mass Small “Poisoning” Transfers to Exchange Addresses; Some Accounts Reportedly Frozen HTX said it is investigating reports that some addresses received small transfers appearing to originate from HTX. The exchange said an internal review found that it had not initiated any related transfers or testing activity. HTX is examining the source and cause of the transactions, including the possibility of address-labeling or on-chain attribution errors, and said it will disclose findings once confirmed.

    ZachXBT: UK Sanctions on HTX Have Made On-Chain Risk Scores ‘Meaningless’ ZachXBT argued that UK sanctions against HTX have led to excessive address tainting, making sanctions-related risk labels less useful for blockchain investigations. He said compliance systems often struggle to separate pre- and post-sanctions activity and claimed regulators overlooked a separate $1.25 billion laundering case while focusing on HTX. Earlier, FixedFloat announced it would suspend and subject HTX-originated funds to additional compliance reviews. https://x.com/zachxbt/status/2063933891782799397?s=20

    HTX Suspends WLFI and USD1 Trading, Converting All User USD1 to USDT After Freeze HTX representatives stated that the team behind WLFI, the Trump family-backed crypto project, recently froze HTX-related on-chain addresses citing U.K. sanctions screening, without sufficient prior communication or providing a clear legal basis. As a result, certain WLFI tokens lawfully held by HTX users became restricted from circulation. HTX announced emergency protective measures, formally suspending WLFI-related trading services as well as USD1 deposit and withdrawal services. The platform also forcibly converted all USD1 holdings into USDT and credited the converted funds to users' accounts. HTX emphasized that the affected addresses belong to platform users rather than sanctioned entities or the exchange itself, and called on the WLFI team to immediately unfreeze the addresses. http://x.com/HTX_Molly/status/2063238358097355167

    UK Sanctions HTX Entity Formerly Known as Huobi Global The UK government on May 26 sanctioned HUOBI GLOBAL S.A., the entity linked to HTX, accusing it of providing financial services, funds or economic resources to A7 Limited Liability Company as part of a wider crackdown on Russia sanctions-evasion networks. The action also targeted crypto platforms including Garantex Europe OU, banks and related firms. The move follows the FCA’s February legal action against HTX over alleged unlawful financial promotions to UK consumers. Justin Sun is a member of HTX’s global advisory board. https://x.com/TheBlockCo/status/2059283225055199649?s=20

    Bybit’s Lazarus Security Lab has released a report revealing that, after reviewing 166 blockchain networks, 16 blockchains were found to have built-in fund freezing capabilities, while another 19 could enable such features with minor protocol changes. The freezing mechanisms include hardcoded logic (e.g., BNB Chain, VeChain), config file controls (e.g., Sui, Aptos), and on-chain contract execution (e.g., HECO). https://t.co/VaMGsp51Jx
