Report: With over $11 billion in criminal crypto wallets, here’s how the future looks

However, the same technology also lends it credence due to the accessibility of wallet and transfer information on the blockchain, making it easier for law enforcement officers to do their job. The most recent, and biggest, example of the same has been the arrest of an American couple last week as they allegedly tried to launder Bitcoin worth billions stolen in the 2016 Bitfinex hack.
