Zama responds to cUSDC contract freeze incident: triggered by a related address's compliance mechanism, not targeted sanctions against the protocol

privacy computing protocol Zama posted on the X platform stating that Circle's compliance system flagged an external deposit address. Because this address held funds in the cUSDC contract, the entire cUSDC contract was included in a routine freeze measure. Zama emphasized that this incident is "collateral damage" caused by the affected address and is not a sanction action targeting the Zama protocol. Currently, Zama's legal team has intervened and is working with relevant parties to isolate the flagged address and restore normal access to funds for other unaffected participants as soon as possible.
