Crypto wallet service IZAKA-YA has temporarily suspended transfers and withdrawals for certain accounts while investigating transactions suspected of illegal fund inflows or money laundering. The Hong Kong-based operator confirmed the measure on Aug. 24, saying it applies to accounts requiring further review. It has not disclosed the number of affected accounts or the value of frozen assets, and has not provided a timetable for restoring access. IZAKA-YA said restrictions will be lifted after investigations are completed and accounts are cleared. The action reflects growing anti-money-laundering scrutiny of crypto wallet providers in Hong Kong, Japan and other financial centers, where firms are expected to strengthen know-your-customer procedures and transaction monitoring. Nada News first reported the development in Japan.
