$39 Million USDT Frozen by Tether Amid Crackdown on Illicit Escrow Platforms
The TRON network's Tether (USDT) has frozen $39.27 million in stablecoins linked to Xinbi Guarantee, a commercial escrow service that operated on Telegram until its removal in May 2025.
MistTrack, a blockchain analysis firm, detected the technical intervention across 10 addresses on September 8, 2026.
A single address held more than 10 million USDT at the time of the freeze. Xinbi Guarantee was previously linked to money laundering operations and online scams by industry researchers.
