The DEA Seized $19 Million in Drug Money During an Undercover Operation, Some of Which Flowed into Cryptocurrency

By: theblockbeats.news|2025/08/20 02:42:10

BlockBeats News, August 20th, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) of the United States successfully infiltrated and took control of a Colombian drug trafficking group's money laundering network in an undercover operation that lasted over a decade, handling a total of approximately $19 million, some of which was transferred to a cryptocurrency account. The operation ultimately led to the indictment of two individuals involved in heroin trafficking.


Relevant documents show that in 2018, DEA undercover agents transferred $150,000 to a Coinbase account and exchanged it for over 13 bitcoins. Benefiting from the price surge, this portion of assets is currently valued at over $1.5 million. The Department of Justice is seeking to recover the related funds. (Forbes)
