Spanish authorities, in collaboration with Europol and Eurojust, have dismantled a major underground crypto-banking operation that laundered over €20 million for organized crime groups. The network, spanning China and the Arab world, facilitated illicit activities including drug trafficking and human smuggling through cryptocurrency transactions.
Raids across six Spanish provinces and Antwerp, Belgium, resulted in 17 arrests. The operation highlights the growing intersection of crypto and transnational crime, with law enforcement increasingly targeting shadow financial systems.
