Binance’s Slow Freeze Sparks Crypto Chaos!

Well, gosh golly, what do you know? Binance‘s emergency freeze policy has been under the magnifying glass after a little incident involving Upbit, one of South Korea’s largest crypto exchanges. 🤔

KBS reported that police asked Binance to freeze 470 million Korean won (about $370k) in Solana tokens, but the exchange only blocked a measly $55k-like trying to catch a sneaky squirrel with a net made of spaghetti. 🐿️

Binance claimed they needed “additional verification,” which sounds more like a excuse than a reason. 🧠

Upbit lost $36 million in Solana assets, and now everyone’s playing detective. 🕵️♂️

Upbit’s spokesperson? All tight-lipped and mysterious. 🤐

“We’re working with the authorities… and asking other exchanges to freeze assets. 🤝”
