Conduit sues Tether over $2.8M USDt freeze without explanation

Why it matters

Conduit alleges Tether froze $2.8M in USDt funds tied to a Brazilian regulatory investigation without prior notice or justification. Fund freezes on major stablecoins raise counterparty-risk concerns for holders and could impact Tether's reputation and stablecoin adoption if unilateral asset seizures become a pattern.

In plain language

A crypto company is suing Tether for locking up $2.8 million of its stablecoin because of a Brazilian investigation, with no explanation given. This matters because it raises questions about whether Tether can freeze your money without warning.
