Legal regulations in the cryptocurrency sector continue to evolve. The steps taken in this field are constantly diversifying and continue to impact every aspect of life. In line with this, a report shared with the public by the Maine State Treasury Office drew attention to the state’s interest in legally managing abandoned and reclaimed crypto assets.

Attention-Grabbing Report from Maine State

The evaluation report by Maine revealed that the state was indifferent to the issue when it came to dealing with crypto assets through legal means. The report stated:

“Our office currently does not handle cryptocurrencies, but it may need to start addressing the situation of abandoned cryptocurrency accounts, such as Unclaimed Property.”

According to official data in the institution, there are currently over $328 million worth of unclaimed properties in the state of Maine. Accordingly, the website has started requesting the names, addresses, and property identification information of claimants looking for unclaimed properties. The report also drew attention to the state treasury’s interest in implementing reforms related to emerging topics such as technology and cryptocurrency assets, and this issue was also addressed in the report:

“Although our current regulations and counterparts in other places leave us lacking clear authority to hold our recovered crypto assets, we may want to do so in the future.”

Millions of Dollars Worth of Unclaimed Crypto Assets

Unclaimed crypto assets are a common issue, especially in the Ethereum ecosystem. In the summer of 2014, 8,893 people participated in the Ethereum presale event, and after nearly a decade, these presale wallets containing millions of dollars worth of Ethereum remained unclaimed.

In 2022, the US-based crypto exchange Coinbase initiated a program that could recover unsupported ERC-20 tokens mistakenly sent to the exchange’s addresses. Coinbase stated the following regarding the matter:

“Our recovery tool can directly transfer unsupported assets from your incoming address to your custody wallet at any point without exposing private keys. We achieved this by using patented technology to send funds directly from your incoming address without processing them through our centralized exchange infrastructure.”
