"The UK's comprehensive sanctions on HTX have been widely criticized by industry experts as excessive and unreasonable, a one-size-fits-all approach to regulation. Alex Thorn, Head of Galaxy Research, pointed out that past sanctioned platforms like Hydra and Blender were rife with illegal activities, making those sanctions justifiable. However, HTX has a massive base of compliant retail users in Asia, and blanket sanctions will only end up unfairly harming ordinary users. Moreover, the current inconsistent and chaotic enforcement of stablecoin asset freezes poses a significant threat to user asset security. Popular on-chain analyst ZachXBT also publicly voiced support for HTX, slamming the overreach of this regulatory action. The sanctions have caused severe on-chain tainting, with the platform marking any association with HTX as risky, regardless of transaction timing or context. This has unjustly implicated and restricted many compliant wallets and historically normal transactions of ordinary users. ZachXBT bluntly stated that this sanction risk control system has completely failed. Indiscriminate tagging obscures genuine illegal risks, rendering it entirely unreliable. Ironically, while the UK harshly sanctions HTX, which has a majority of compliant users, it has turned a blind eye to a massive $1.25 billion money laundering case, exposing the severe misalignment, inefficiency, and incompetence of its crypto regulation. In summary, the UK's sanctions this time are not targeted regulation but rather a crude, one-size-fits-all lazy approach. It harms the legitimate rights of retail users, disrupts normal on-chain activity, and fails to effectively combat financial crime. This is nothing more than meaningless overregulation." #HTX #CryptoRegulation #ZachXBT
