Stablecoins should not default to supporting multi-chain issuance with synchronized freezing. While freezing can aid compliance by halting illicit transactions, it risks centralization, undermining blockchain's trustless ethos. Multi-chain issuance adds complexity, potentially compromising security and interoperability. Synchronized freezing across chains requires robust coordination, increasing costs and technical challenges. Instead, stablecoin issuers should prioritize transparency, decentralized governance, and user control. Freezing mechanisms, if needed, should be opt-in, clearly defined, and limited to legal mandates, ensuring user trust and autonomy.
