Bloomberg: Assisting Turkey in Freezing $1 Billion in Assets, Tether Is Reshaping Compliance Boundaries

On January 30, Turkish authorities froze over $500 million in assets linked to Veysel Sahin, who is accused of operating an illegal gambling platform and money laundering. The operation was executed by an unnamed cryptocurrency company, later revealed to be Tether Holdings SA, the issuer of the $185 billion stablecoin USDT. Tether has been cooperating with global law enforcement agencies to combat crypto-related crimes, including money laundering and sanctions evasion. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino stated that the company follows legal procedures when assisting authorities, including the U.S. Department of Justice and FBI. The freeze is part of a broader Turkish operation that has seized over $1 billion in assets. A second individual under investigation for similar charges had an additional $500 million in crypto assets frozen, though it is unclear if Tether tokens were involved. According to Elliptic, Tether and its competitor Circle have blacklisted approximately 5,700 wallets holding around $2.5 billion in assets, with three-quarters of them containing USDT. Tether claims to have assisted law enforcement in 62 countries, freezing $3.4 billion in USDT tied to illicit activities. This marks a significant shift from Tether’s earlier conflicts with U.S. regulators, including a 2021 settlement over misrepresenting reserves. The company has recently re-entered the U.S. market with a compliant stablecoin, USAT, and has gained recognition for its cooperation with authorities. Despite this, USDT continues to face scrutiny for its use in criminal activities, including a recent case involving $1 billion in money laundering and reports of Iran’s central bank using USDT to evade sanctions.

ARK Invest: Will Stablecoins Become the Cornerstone of the Next Generation Monetary System?

ARK Invest explores whether stablecoins could become the cornerstone of the next monetary system, drawing parallels between today’s privately issued digital currencies and the free banking era in the U.S. prior to the Federal Reserve's establishment in 1913. The article highlights the emergence of Tether (USDT) in 2014 as a solution to slow cross-border dollar transfers in crypto markets. Initially used for arbitrage, stablecoins like USDT gained traction in emerging economies during the COVID-19 pandemic as a hedge against hyperinflation and currency devaluation. By 2025, USDT’s supply reached $187 billion, backed largely by U.S. Treasuries and serving over 450 million users globally. The discussion references the GENIUS Act, which legitimizes privately issued stablecoins, and features insights from Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino, economist Arthur Laffer, and ARK CEO Cathie Wood. Laffer compares modern stablecoins to 19th-century private banknotes but notes that technological and regulatory advances mitigate past risks like fraud and instability. Looking forward, stablecoins may evolve into interest-bearing instruments or be pegged to baskets of commodities. Tether is also expanding into commodity settlement and developing new stablecoins like USAT for developed markets. The piece concludes that stablecoins could modernize financial infrastructure, combining the efficiency of blockchain with the stability of asset-backed currencies.

Assisting Turkey in Freezing $1 Billion in Assets, Tether's Compliance Approach Has Changed

On January 30, Turkish authorities froze assets worth over $500 million belonging to Veysel Sahin, who is accused of operating an illegal gambling platform and money laundering. Tether Holdings SA, the issuer of the $185 billion stablecoin USDT, assisted in the freeze at the request of the Turkish government. This action is part of a broader Turkish operation that has frozen over $1 billion in assets. Tether has increasingly collaborated with global law enforcement agencies to combat cryptocurrency-related crimes, including money laundering, drug trafficking, and sanctions evasion. According to Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino, the company follows legal procedures when working with authorities such as the U.S. Department of Justice and the FBI. Analysis by Elliptic shows that Tether and its competitor Circle have blacklisted around 5,700 wallets holding approximately $2.5 billion in assets, with three-quarters of these containing USDT. Tether claims to have assisted in over 1,800 cases across 62 countries, freezing $3.4 billion in USDT tied to illicit activities. This marks a shift from Tether’s earlier tensions with U.S. regulators, including a 2021 settlement over misrepresenting reserves. The company has recently re-entered the U.S. market with a compliant stablecoin, USAT, and has gained regulatory acceptance under the Trump administration. Despite these efforts, USDT remains under scrutiny for its use in criminal activities, including a recent case involving $1 billion in money laundering and reports of Iran’s central bank using USDT to evade sanctions.
