There’s a bizarre case in Hubei. The Jiayu County police issued an announcement on December 5, saying they’re holding a batch of virtual currency involved in a case. There are 1.9 million USDT sitting in the wallet, and now they’re looking everywhere for the real owner.



At the current exchange rate, that’s about 13.56 million RMB. The police said the money is related to an extortion case, but they need to verify who the legitimate owner is.

Honestly, losing that much USDT is wild. I can’t imagine how anxious the original owner must be right now—after all, these days, it’s not often you get the police helping you recover millions in crypto assets. If you qualify, hurry up and claim it. Opportunities like this don’t come around often.

13.56 million USDT is lying in the police station waiting to be claimed. This plot is just too surreal, haha. 2. The money involved in the extortion case—imagine how awkward it must be for the original owner now. 3. Does anyone in the Web3 community know about this case? No one else could have pulled off something like this. 4. 1.9 million USDT just got confiscated like that. I wonder how it will be handled next. 5. Who is this person that can lose such a huge sum of money? Get a grip. 6. The police helping to recover crypto assets—I never thought I’d see this day. 7. Using USDT to pay for extortion? This guy is something else. 8. Tens of millions just sitting there—if I were the owner, I’d be freaking out. 9. Having your assets frozen by the police—imagine how uncomfortable that must be. 10. If you meet the requirements, hurry up and go claim it, or it’ll really be gone.

An unresolved case of on-chain inheritance. 13.56 million USDT is lying in the evidence vault, like a lost digital artifact waiting for its rightful claimant to appear—a scenario that is deeply ironic in itself, as assets from the virtual world ultimately end up in the hands of real-world authorities. The asset flow involved in this extortion case could very well make for an interesting on-chain archaeological journal.

Damn, 13,560,000 USDT is just lying in the hands of the police like that? How anxious or careless does someone have to be to lose such a huge amount of money?

More than 13 million USDT is just lying with the police waiting to be claimed? This guy's luck is really unbelievable. The owner must be hoping the police don't lose it now.
