Following Binance's $6.3 billion security breach, Ripple successfully froze $40.5 million in stolen RLUSD tokens linked to the attackers, preventing further unauthorized withdrawals.

The case underscores the trade-offs between security controls in stablecoins and the decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies.
