Danish citizen jailed for money laundering with cryptocurrencies
The authorities will send this subject to jail for four years because he cleaned at least $ 500,000 from illegal activities
A 33-year-old Danish man was sentenced to four years in prison after pleading guilty to money laundering through cryptocurrencies.
This person used the bitcoin to clean the money he received from criminal activities.
It is estimated that the Danish washed at least 500,000 dollars. Not only this individual is being tried but also the intermediary faces charges for hacking servers and computers of other people in order to illegally mine digital assets.
Commissioner Troels Jul Kjærgaard, part of the team leading the investigation, indicated during the surveys that they had obtained “a bank account in a foreign bank, where several bitcoin transfers could be seen coming from the subject in question”.
It is important to note that the cryptocurrency research group CipherTrace revealed that 380,000 “dirty bitcoins” have been washed between January 2009 and September 2018.
