Malaysia Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP)
My account has been frozen for over four months now, with no reason provided. Every time I ask Huobi why my account was frozen, they give no explanation. When I request to have my account unfrozen, I am only told to "wait patiently," with zero progress made. As of now, after more than four months, my account remains frozen and my assets are still inaccessible.
Opened a multi-coin contract position at once, then closed some of it. The funniest part was Bitcoin got closed after just 1 point.

From the collapse of major exchanges to withdrawal difficulties faced by smaller platforms, ordinary users are often the ones who suffer the greatest impact in the end.

Hyperliquid has faced a wave of criticism over its handling of UK sanctions against crypto exchange $HTX. According to a user known as “as required,” the platform has adopted the harshest possible interpretation of the sanctions and is blocking wallets that only indirectly interacted with $HTX. Addresses associated with Bybit may also be affected. The controversy stems from UK sanctions imposed on Huobi Global SA, a company associated with $HTX, on May 26, 2026. Authorities suspect the exchange of helping Russia evade sanctions by transferring more than $1.5 billion through the so-called A7 network. Under UK regulations, the restrictions apply to local digital asset service providers, or VASPs. What are the claims against Hyperliquid? As required emphasized that Hyperliquid is not a British company and has no ties to the UK. The platform is registered in Singapore. Nevertheless, he claims it began blocking any wallet that had contact with addresses previously associated with $HTX after May 26, regardless of the number of intermediate transfers. According to the author, the sanctions apply only to British companies working with $HTX, while Hyperliquid went “beyond the law” by blocking users over any connection to one of the worlds ten largest centralized exchanges. He also said the platform

Justin Sun-owned crypto exchange $HTX (formerly Huobi Global) has reportedly moved $1.3 billion worth of reserve funds to an undisclosed ‘third party.’ According to $HTXs latest Proof of Reserves report, 1,719 Bitcoin [$BTC], or roughly 8% of its reported 20,922 $BTC reserves, were held with the third party. For Ethereum [$ETH], 76,515 $ETH from its reported reserve holdings were also transferred to the custodian. Similarly, 99% of its $238M USDC was transferred to the same undisclosed custodian. Additionally, $819M of its $906M USDT reserves was also sent to the third party. Collectively, these transfers and other assets bring the ‘third party’ holdings to $1.3B. $HTX was recently sanctioned by the U.K government for allegedly helping Russian entities move capital. Why did $HTX move reserve assets? Commenting on the $HTX move, prominent security researcher Taylor Monahan said, Risk has changed for $HTX due to the sanctions, which means that govt overreach is now a bigger threat than, say, getting hacked.
