The U.S. government demands the confiscation of 200,000 USDT related to the Bitcoin theft case in Ohio

ChainCatcher news, according to Bitcoin.com, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Ohio announced on Friday that the U.S. has filed a civil forfeiture lawsuit seeking to seize $200,000 worth of USDT.

This action stems from an incident that occurred in February 2024, when $340,000 worth of Bitcoin was fraudulently transferred from a victim's wallet in Ohio.
