Zama cUSDC Freeze Lifted After Court Reverses Overnight-Linked Order
Zama’s Confidential USDC contract is back to normal after a U.S. court lifted the temporary freeze that had locked USDC inside the protocol’s cUSDC wrapper. The cUSDC freeze reversal ends a short but important stress test for privacy-focused DeFi, stablecoin issuer controls and pooled smart-contract infrastructure. The original freeze was not aimed at Zama or crypto privacy directly. It was connected to an ongoing civil dispute involving Overnight Finance stakeholders, where a large disputed deposit had entered the cUSDC contract before the court order hit.
