Native blockchain assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and most altcoins cannot be frozen by any company or protocol because no single entity controls the smart contracts or consensus rules governing them. If these assets are stolen and moved to a new wallet, they remain fully functional and spendable regardless of any company's wishes. This is both a feature and a vulnerability: the censorship resistance that makes Bitcoin valuable to users seeking financial autonomy is the same property that makes stolen Bitcoin extremely difficult to recover. The practical implication for users is that the security of native blockchain assets depends entirely on preventing theft in the first place, since there is no backstop freeze mechanism once funds leave a compromised wallet.
