The restructured New York investment bank Salomon Brothers sent a legal notice using OP_Return to suspected "abandoned" Bitcoin addresses, claiming potential rights to these long-unused wallets based on the Doctrine of Abandonment. This action covers multiple high-value wallets, including the well-known address 1Feex, which holds approximately 80,000 BTC, raising various controversies related to legal, ethical, and quantum attack risks. Wallet owners have 90 days to declare ownership through on-chain transactions or official website forms, and some assets have already been transferred by users due to the notice. (CoinDesk)
