Withdrawal Block

Definition

A withdrawal block is a temporary or permanent restriction placed on a user’s ability to remove funds from a cryptocurrency exchange or platform. These blocks can be implemented for various reasons, including security concerns, regulatory compliance checks, suspicious activity detection, or technical issues with the platform. While sometimes necessary for user protection or system integrity, unexpected withdrawal blocks can cause significant user frustration and raise concerns about liquidity and platform solvency. Transparency regarding these restrictions is paramount.
