Which coins can be frozen?

Can be frozen 4

  • Tether USDT by Tether

    Be held without a company: Partly. You can keep USDT in your own wallet, but Tether can freeze tokens and blacklist the address that holds them.

  • USDC USDC by Circle

    Be held without a company: Partly. You can keep USDC in your own wallet, but Circle can block an address and freeze the USDC in it, for a time or for good.

  • World Liberty Financial WLFI by World Liberty Financial

    Be held without a company: Partly. WLFI bought in the early sale rounds could not be moved at first. A fifth of it became unlockable around 1 September 2025, after signing an agreement, and the company keeps discretion over when and on what conditions the rest unlocks.

  • Pi Network PI by Pi Core Team

    Be held without a company: Partly. Pi mined in the phone app is not yet on the blockchain. Its white paper says only people who pass an identity check can move their phone balance to the blockchain, and Pi from accounts judged fake is not carried over.

Cannot be, by their own terms 8

  • Bitcoin BTC

    Be held without a company: Yes. Bitcoin sits at an address controlled by a key. Whoever holds the key holds the coins, and no company can freeze or move them. If the key is lost, nobody can restore it.

  • Ethereum ETH

    Be held without a company: Yes. Ether sits at an address controlled by a key. In a wallet you run yourself, the wallet's maker never has custody of the funds, and the recovery phrase is the only way back in.

  • XRP XRP

    Be held without a company: Yes. XRP sits at an address controlled by a key, and its ledger has no way to freeze it. But an account of your own can never be emptied: it must always keep 1 XRP in reserve. Held at an exchange, your XRP sits in the exchange's account instead, so the rule does not reach you, and you depend on the exchange.

  • Cardano ADA

    Be held without a company: Yes. Ada sits in a wallet whose keys you hold, and staking it never moves it out of that wallet.

  • Gram (prev. Toncoin) GRAM

    Be held without a company: Yes. GRAM sits in a wallet that is a small program on the chain, and it obeys only messages signed with your private key. Every account pays a storage fee over time for staying on the chain: once the unpaid fee passes 0.1 GRAM the account is frozen, and the docs call getting it back complex.

  • Bittensor TAO

    Be held without a company: Yes. TAO is controlled by a key the docs call the coldkey, and whoever holds its recovery phrase owns the funds. An account whose balance falls below a tiny minimum, 500 rao (a rao is a billionth of a TAO), is deactivated and what was left in it is destroyed.

  • Polkadot DOT

    Be held without a company: Yes. DOT sits at an address controlled by a key. An account has to keep a small minimum, currently 0.01 DOT: if its balance falls below that, the account is wiped from the chain along with whatever was left in it. Fees alone cannot take it below the line.

  • Algorand ALGO

    Be held without a company: Yes. Algo sits in an account controlled by a private key. Every account has to keep a minimum of 100,000 microAlgos, which is 0.1 Algo: a transaction that would take the balance below that fails.
