Product Update: FreezeRadar Now Tracks Permanently Destroyed Funds
FreezeRadar now detects when Tether permanently destroys the balance of a blacklisted USDT or XAUt wallet, not only when the wallet is frozen.
Product Update: FreezeRadar Now Tracks Permanently Destroyed Funds
A frozen wallet isn't always the end of the story. Sometimes Tether goes a step further and permanently destroys the frozen balance, taking it out of circulation for good. Until now, FreezeRadar only showed the freeze itself — it had no way to tell you the funds were later burned.
That's changed. FreezeRadar now picks up these destruction events for USDT and XAUt, on both Ethereum-compatible chains and Tron, and adds them to a wallet's history alongside its freeze record. The amount destroyed comes straight from the burn transaction itself, so it reflects exactly what was removed from supply.
This distinction matters: a freeze can, in principle, be reversed, but a burn cannot. Knowing which one happened gives a clearer picture of a wallet's actual status.
No action is needed on your end — this runs automatically as part of our regular data sync.
