ChainCatcher News: A U.S. federal judge has issued a temporary restraining order against the crypto lending platform BlockFills, temporarily freezing assets related to the dispute. Dominion Capital filed a lawsuit on February 27, accusing BlockFills of misappropriating and illegally withholding customer crypto assets worth millions of dollars, mixing customer assets, concealing significant losses, and refusing to return them after suspending withdrawals on the platform on February 2. The freeze includes 70.6 BTC and prevents BlockFills from transferring assets overseas.

Crypto lending platform BlockFills is experiencing financial difficulties, recording a $75 million loss, and suspended user deposits and withdrawals on February 11. The company is headquartered in Chicago, serving approximately 2,000 institutional clients, with a trading volume of $60 billion in 2025, and is currently seeking a buyer.
