Multichain Asset Freeze Extended: Global Crypto Liquidation Proceeds

A New York court has extended a global asset freeze to aid the liquidation of Singapore’s Multichain, securing assets worldwide for creditors during insolvency proceedings. This action highlights increasing regulatory oversight over digital asset protocols and potentially influencing market stability and confidence in creditors. The order impacts cryptocurrencies linked to Multichain’s operations, including those associated with Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). The move is a result of cross-jurisdictional coordination, mirroring Singapore’s liquidation procedures. This action demonstrates the growing enforcement presence in global crypto insolvencies.
