These are the addresses named in a civil forfeiture complaint as property the United States seized or had frozen, drawn from the complaint's Attachment A, which the filing introduces as listing in full every unhosted wallet address from which law enforcement seized funds in this investigation. A forfeiture complaint is an allegation against property rather than a conviction of any person: it states the government's case for why the funds are forfeitable, and the case had not been decided when this was recorded. Presence here says an address was seized or frozen in this action, not that any particular person has been found to have done anything.
