is this coin centralized?: because accounts are linked to an email address (and funds also transferred through this method) can your team suspend an account and forfeit all the coins? just asking out of curiosity, thanks

Thanks whotheff but even reading this post i'm still in doubt if people from the team can act directly on the accounts. i suspect that they can. if they decide an account may be fraudulent(or for other reasons) can they close that account and forfeit all the coins? i didn't ask this question because i have opened a fraudulent account but just to understand how decentralized this is.
in bitcoin all transactions are final and you own your coins only if you own the private keys, there is nobody (unless they know your private keys by hacking, phishing or else) that can "forfeit" your account, not even the FBI. in the famous case of ross ulbricht they could take his btc only because they got access in some ways to his private keys. i just would like to understand more, i don't want to jump to conclusions, thanks
