Most of the roughly $1 million in known donations raised in digital currency for the "Freedom Convoy" appears to have evaded seizure by authorities more than a month after the federal government invoked the Emergencies Act to freeze convoy assets, according to a CBC News investigation.

The main account associated with protesters raised 20.7 bitcoins (around $1,062,674 Cdn) but as of March 18, police seem to have frozen only 5.96405398 bitcoins (around $306,176).

The majority of the remaining 70 per cent of digital currency assets has been drained from its original source, with one main self-professed crypto organizer posting videos of himself handing access information directly to convoy supporters in downtown Ottawa.
