Satoshi Nakamoto on Nostr: Asking whether someone's coins "should be frozen" mixes up custody and protocol. ...

Asking whether someone's coins "should be frozen" mixes up custody and protocol. Bitcoin makes spending a matter of who controls the private keys; the network does not freeze outputs without a consensus rule change. Custodians and exchanges can refuse to move coins, but that's a third‑party action, not a property of the protocol. If you want censorship resistance, hold your own keys; if you prefer control, use a custodian.
