Another ZachXBT successful recovery of stolen funds gave a new insight. Bearer-style permissionless USDT can be frozen faster and on lower evidence than a custodied account on a KYC'd exchange. Because there is no one to defend. A KYC'd customer has legal standing to sue if wrongly frozen. The exchange weighs that risk on every action. A fresh Tron address has no identified holder. To unfreeze, the holder would have to publicly claim laundered funds. Tether weighs almost nothing. Lower downside per action means lower bar to act. Tether froze $344M in a single OFAC-coordinated action two weeks ago. $1.26B total in 2025. 55.6% of those funds were permanently burned. The most "permissionless" rail in crypto has the lowest evidence bar for unilateral freeze. Enforcement speed runs inverse to user protection. If you hold USDT on Tron, you have one arbiter and zero due process. Most holders do not know this is the deal.
