22 sats \ 3 replies \ @ama 3 Mar \ on: Possible to freeze bitcoin wallet for In&out transactions? mempool
There is no money into your hardware wallet. There is no BTC into any wallet. Your hardware device is a signer that you use to sign transactions on the blockchain, the ledger where the BTC is registered. As long as you keep your private keys secret, nobody can prevent you to sign transactions, and therefore to "send" money to whomever you want whenever you want. Just make sure nobody has access to your hardware signer, its password, its passphrase, or its recovery seed (list of 12 or 24 words).

If by control you mean watch what's send and/or received from/to an address, yes, everybody can do that, since the Bitcoin blockchain is a public ledger. What's harder is to associate that address to you (the holder of its private key) if you take some precautions: don't reuse addresses, handle non KYC coins (or coinjoin them later)...
If by control you mean to access any funds or to prevent you to access them, then no, nobody can unless they get it's associated private key (which is stored into your hardware signer) or the seed to generate it (which you should keep safe.

USDT is a centralized shitcoin. That's why they can freeze it.
