Sebastián Marset case shows blockchain traces as money-laundering evidence

  • Blockchain traces are used as evidence of fund flows, not as the basis of charges
  • The public, immutable ledger lets investigators track flows between wallets and exchanges
  • Conversion points from crypto to fiat fall under KYC and suspicious-activity reporting
  • P2P swaps complicate tracing but do not make it impossible
Why it matters: The case reinforces that blockchain is not a safe haven for dirty money but a tracing tool for law enforcement.
