Cryptocurrency Money Laundering

Cryptocurrency money laundering uses exchanges, over-the-counter (OTC) trading, digital wallets and cross-chain transfers to conceal the origin and movement of criminal proceeds. Authorities in Taiwan, China, Europe, the United States and Interpol have recently pursued a series of major cases targeting USDT, Ethereum addresses, phishing groups and fraud networks. Judicial authorities are also strengthening standards for forensic analysis of on-chain data and criminal convictions. These developments affect platform compliance, asset freezes, sanctions enforcement and users’ transaction risks, making them important areas to watch.
