That's not the whole point at all. And there are truly wild west cryptos, but most people want some trustworthy regulatory body, whether it's a government or not, backstopping their funds when they get large enough.

For instance to unwind a 5 billion dollar robbery

Stablecoins are fiat on-chain and they are legal so they need to have the freezing mechanism in the smart contract otherwise they could go to jail.

So crypto + legal company means not really following bitcoin ideology anymore

At least a motivated person could audit the smart contracts on this. It isn't like it's a surprise when it turns out it's possible to freeze these coins.

this isn't crypto, it's US dollars with a techno-wizard sheen on the top for no reason

governments, banks freeze currency all the time

> Freezing crypto is so disgusting to me I don’t know…

The feature literally appears to have just saved over two billion USD from being stolen! I mean, fine, "disgusting" is subjective. But the need for the feature is real and quantifiable (and very large) and it did what it advertised.

It's so sad that it's inconvenient for you to commit fraud and tax evasion and pyramid schemes and rug pulls.

My heart goes out to you, along with these two definitely not Nazi salutes.
