US seizes $14B in Bitcoin tied to scams run by Cambodia’s Prince Group

Federal agents just pulled off the crypto seizure of the decade—grabbing $14 billion in Bitcoin from Cambodia's notorious Prince Group.

The Digital Dragnet

Operation Chainbreaker targeted sophisticated scam networks running through Cambodian luxury compounds. Investigators followed the blockchain breadcrumbs straight to offshore wallets stuffed with ill-gotten Bitcoin.

Regulators Finally Playing Offense

This isn't your grandma's money laundering case. We're talking next-generation financial crime—until the feds remembered they can trace this stuff better than your average crypto bro.

The Aftermath

While $14B sounds impressive, it's pocket change compared to what still flows through crypto's shadow economy. Another day, another reminder that in finance, the house always wins—even when it's the government's house.
