Ethereum: 16 Blockchains Enable Fund Freezing

Study Reveals Protocol-Level Freezing in Multiple Blockchains

  • A total of 16 blockchains currently have protocol-level capabilities to freeze funds.
  • An additional 19 blockchains could potentially support fund freezing in the future.
  • The study identified three distinct methods for freezing funds at the protocol level.

The findings highlight that certain blockchain networks possess built-in mechanisms allowing governance groups or foundations to restrict access to specific addresses. This capability is crucial for understanding the control dynamics within these networks.

Currently, 16 blockchains are equipped with such freezing functionalities, while another 19 blockchains might adopt similar features, indicating a potential trend towards enhanced protocol-level control measures. (Source)
