š How Binance Helped Crack a $3.75M Kidnapping Case
Crypto isnāt just about trading ā itās also a powerful tool for justice. š„
In a recent case in the Philippines, kidnappers demanded a $3.75 million ransom, which they laundered through casinos and converted into crypto. But what they didnāt count on?
š Binanceās Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) working side-by-side with law enforcement.
Using on-chain analytics, Binance helped: ā
Trace the complex digital trail
ā
Identify suspicious wallets
ā
Connect the ransom to offshore gambling & criminal networks

Assist Philippine police in advancing the case fast
š” This isnāt the first time. Binance also supported:
