Tether Unfreezes Four THORChain Vaults After Blacklisting 1.45M USDT

Tether removed four Tron addresses from its USDT blacklist at 15:30 UTC, three hours after freezing them, with balances intact, and THORChain has restarted Tron trading, deposits and signing. The 19 other wallets frozen in the same sweep remain blacklisted.

AI take

Tether's willingness to reverse a freeze within hours, while leaving the broader sweep in place, suggests the blacklist is being applied with more granularity than a blanket enforcement action — a distinction that matters for protocols whose infrastructure gets caught in the crossfire. THORChain's quick resumption shows how dependent cross-chain liquidity is on a single issuer's compliance decisions. Whether the remaining frozen wallets are similarly resolved, or stay blacklisted, is the open question for anyone assessing how Tether calibrates these interventions.
