What does it mean when an exchange account is judicially frozen and assets cannot be withdrawn?

There have been increasing inquiries about this matter. Last year, we encountered two cases, and now those consulting me have significant amounts of cryptocurrency stored on exchanges.

Many people claim that the exchanges are acting maliciously, but that's not the case; the exchanges are not involved at all, and they are actually cooperating because they want to comply with regulations.

I want to tell everyone that after 2025, there may no longer be large-scale online gambling projects, which could lead to a significant increase in judicial freezes of exchange accounts. This is also why many law firms are now specifically paying to shift their project strategies.

So, what changes can we expect in 2025? Let me make a prediction:

• Large-scale freezing of online gambling project accounts will disappear;
• Judicial disposal of virtual assets will be legal in Hong Kong;
• There will be a significant increase in judicial freezes of exchange accounts.

In fact, the logic behind judicial freezes of exchange accounts is quite similar to that of online gambling projects. Your digital assets (U) may be marked as "black U." This "black" status is theoretical; the underlying logic is that the wallets of those involved in illicit activities, such as operators of gambling houses or Ponzi schemes, are being monitored by many people. For instance, if a large amount of U flows out from these addresses, technical investigation companies will detect it, and authorities can directly send a letter to the legal department of the exchange to freeze your account.

A member of my group once had 6 million U in digital assets frozen.

The reason given was involvement in a case. My team has handled several such cases, and the solution typically involves the authorities bringing technical investigation personnel to sign an "Asset Disposal Agreement," allowing the parties involved to authorize the technical investigation personnel to help dispose of the digital assets, and everyone negotiates a figure that satisfies all parties.

Of course, I am also researching whether this process is legally compliant; this is merely a case study and should not be considered a comprehensive strategy.

This is the logic behind judicial freezes of exchange accounts. There are many factors involved, and it is actually simpler than unfreezing a bank account. The reason why it is difficult to resolve is that most of the owners of frozen exchange accounts are involved in wrongdoing, which is why they are afraid to seek resolution. This is the core of the problem, leading to more involvement from technical investigation companies and legal professionals.
