Polimbana ndi umbava wapaintaneti wokhudzana ndi ndalama za crypto, akuluakulu aku Germany alanda ndalama zokwana €34 miliyoni (pafupifupi $38 miliyoni) muzinthu za digito kuchokera ku crypto exchange eXch. Pulatifomu akuti idathandizira kubera ndalama zomwe zidabedwa panthawi ya kuthyolako kwa Bybit $ 1.5 biliyoni mu February 2025. Ntchitoyi, yomwe idalengezedwa pa 9 May ndi Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) ndi Ofesi ya Frankfurt Public Prosecutor, ikuyimira kulanda katundu wachitatu waukulu kwambiri wa crypto m'mbiri ya Germany.

Kuphatikiza pa chuma cha digito, akuluakulu aboma adawononga zida za seva ya eXch, ndikuteteza deta yopitilira ma terabytes asanu ndi atatu. Dera la nsanja, komanso mawonekedwe ake a clearnet ndi darknet, achotsedwa pa intaneti.
Yakhazikitsidwa mu 2014, eXch idagwira ntchito ngati njira yosinthira ndalama za cryptocurrency, zomwe zimathandizira kusinthanitsa chuma cha digito popanda kugwiritsa ntchito njira za Anti-Money Laundering (AML) kapena ma protocol a Know Your Customer (KYC).

Gawo lodziwika bwino lazinthu zochapitsidwa zidachokera ku kuphwanya kwa Bybit, komwe pafupifupi 401,000 ETH idabedwa. Ofufuza adanenanso kuti 5,000 ETH idalumikizidwa kudzera pa eXch ndipo kenako idasinthidwa kukhala Bitcoin kudzera mu protocol ya Chainflip. Gulu la Lazarus logwirizana ndi North Korea likuganiziridwa kuti ndilomwe likuyambitsa izi.
eXch idalumikizidwanso ndi zigawenga zazikulu za crypto, kuphatikiza kuba $243 miliyoni yokhudzana ndi omwe adangongoleredwa ku Genesis, ukadaulo wa FixedFloat, komanso chinyengo chofala. Malinga ndi wofufuza wa blockchain ZachXBT, nsanjayo idanyalanyaza mobwerezabwereza zopempha zoletsa ma adilesi okayikitsa kapena kutsatira malamulo oziziritsa.
Ngakhale idalengeza kuti kuyimitsidwa pofika Meyi 1, eXch akuti idapitilizabe kupereka ntchito za API kwa anzawo ena. Makampani azamalumikizidwe adawona zochitika zomwe zikuchitika, kuphatikiza zochitika zokhudzana ndi nkhanza za ana (CSAM), ngakhale zitatsekedwa pagulu.
Woyimira milandu wamkulu wa boma a Benjamin Krause adatsindika kufunika kochotsa nsanja zosadziwika za crypto-swapping, ponena kuti ntchito zoterezi zimakhala ndi gawo lofunika kwambiri pobisa ndalama zosavomerezeka zomwe zimachokera ku cybercrimes ndi chinyengo cha ndalama.
Ntchito yokakamiza iyi ikuwonetsa gawo lofunikira pakuyesa kuwongolera kwapadziko lonse lapansi polimbana ndi kubetcha kwa ndalama kothandizidwa ndi crypto. Pamene chuma cha digito chikuwonjezeka kwambiri, mabungwe olamulira akuwonjezera kuunika kwawo kuti atsimikizire kuvomerezeka ndi kuwonekera kwa machitidwe azachuma a crypto.
