泰国商人起诉 Tether 涉嫌违规冻结 4240 万美元
深潮 TechFlow 消息,9 月 4 日,据 Cointelegraph 报道,两名泰国男子已向纽约联邦地区法院提起诉讼,指责稳定币巨头 Tether 违规冻结了与其关联的 4240 万美元 USDT 资金。这组资金涉及一宗针对东南亚投资者的“杀猪盘”诈骗案。原告强调,尽管涉案人员承认参与了欺诈活动,但在今年 10 月的资产冻结行动中,美方执法机构并未出示搜查令。起诉文件显示,Tether 是在收到美国国土安全调查局发出的非正式请求后单方面锁定了资金。直到来年 2 月,北卡罗来纳州东部地区法庭才补发了针对涉案资金的正式扣押令。该案件的核心争议在于稳定币发行方是否有权在缺乏有效司法文书的前提下配合境外机构的行政指令,这一判决有望重塑数字资产行业的监管合规标准。
Thai businessmen sue Tether over $42.4 million in frozen USDT
TechFlow, Sep 4: Cointelegraph reports two Thai men filed suit in a New York federal court accusing Tether of improperly freezing $42.4 million of USDT linked to them — funds tied to a pig-butchering scam against Southeast Asian investors. The plaintiffs concede the individuals involved admitted fraud, but say US law enforcement showed no search warrant during October's asset freeze; filings show Tether unilaterally locked the funds after an informal request from Homeland Security Investigations, with a formal seizure order from a North Carolina court only issued the following February. The core dispute is whether a stablecoin issuer may enforce an administrative request from a foreign agency without valid judicial instruments — a ruling that could reshape compliance standards for digital assets.
