Circle Freezes 16 Business Hot Wallets
US-based stablecoin giant Circle abruptly froze USDC balances in 16 business hot wallets on the night of March 23, 2026 . These wallets belonged to active companies such as exchanges, online casino platforms, forex providers, and payment processors. There was no suspicion of hacking or money laundering; the freeze was due to a sealed US civil case in New York. Details are still being kept confidential. The news, broken by on-chain detective ZachXBT on X, has shaken the crypto world and reignited the "centralized censorship" debate. For GATE Square readers
