The key point is: once these addresses are flagged, the exchange will directly blacklist them, and liquidity will instantly drop to zero.

Are you curious whether these 518 addresses belong to the same organization’s cluster? Or are they multiple batches overlaid and counted together?

Only 9,306 BTC across 518 addresses, the total isn't considered exaggerated, but the signal is quite strong.

$707 million sounds frightening, but in terms of BTC's total market value, it's just a drop in the bucket; the market likely considers it noise.

Coins in sanctioned addresses, even if not confiscated, are essentially "frozen on the chain," unless they are laundered through an extended chain of transactions.

If 9306 BTC can truly be effectively intercepted, it indicates that regulation is becoming more mature in the "liquidity realization stage," and OTC trading will become more difficult in the future.

The sanctions list has been updated again, and on-chain monitoring companies are about to see a surge in sales. Compliance-related businesses will never lack demand.

Once again, a reminder: on-chain anonymity ≠ untraceable, especially the moment it connects with real-world entry points.

I'm more worried about false positives: once the address clustering algorithm links innocent addresses, ordinary people might also be blocked by exchange risk control.
