US DOJ seizes illegal marketplace and freezes $52 million in crypto

  • The US DOJ froze $52 million in cryptocurrency linked to an illegal marketplace
  • With US support, 13 scam centers run by Chinese nationals were closed in Madagascar
  • The campaign expands the fight against scam centers beyond Southeast Asia
Why it matters: The strengthening of international raids against scam infrastructure reduces the volume of fraudulent schemes and increases regulatory pressure on the crypto space.
