A growing wave of frustration is sweeping through Trust Wallet users as ChangeNOW continues to hold 29,489 USDT for 627 days, exceeding the EU legal limit for investigations by a staggering 447 days. This situation has motivated users to launch complaints and engage Spanish authorities as they question the safety of their assets.
Recent developments reveal that the MOSSOS d'Esquadra in Spain are now actively investigating ChangeNOW related to alleged theft and violations of the 5AMLD regulations. The anonymous user behind the complaint shared, "No private lawyer needed; MOSSOS is already handling this criminal case."
Despite a public post indicating ChangeNOW's disregard for user concernsβby reportedly posting memes about "FOMO/FUD" while holding onto these fundsβthe sentiment among the Trust Wallet community grows increasingly harsh. "Theyβre laughing while users suffer," remarked a community member.
Online forums are lighting up with comments:
Trust Concerns: "Trust is 100% scammers. I lost everything I had there as well," lamented one participant.
Desperation for Accountability: Community voices are urging ChangeNOW to clarify its position, with heightened anger towards the lack of response from support teams since 2022.
Warnings Against Wallet Use: Many are warning users to steer clear of services like ChangeNOW through DApps, stressing the risks involved: "Your crypto is not SAFU if you use ChangeNOW!"
Legal repercussions could be on the horizon for ChangeNOW. With multiple similar cases emerging, the recent activity points to a troubling trend of extended hold times on larger transactions, raising serious questions about compliance with EU laws.
"If they hold it for so long during compliance process, you should be concerned about that," cautioned a participant in the threads.

βοΈ Expired Investigation Limits: The 627-day hold significantly surpasses the 180-day requirement set by EU law.
