The chief executive officer of peer-to-peer crypto marketplace Paxful has announced the unfreezing of 88% of previously frozen user accounts more than a week after suspending operations.

In an April 16 Twitter thread, Paxful CEO Ray Youssef said roughly $4.4 million in frozen funds remained on the platform after staff had unfrozen 88% of existing accounts. According to Youssef, the unfreezing of accounts had been accomplished “with no engineers or compliance folks,” claiming all remaining frozen funds were “in the hands of” United States financial regulators.
