【Lancashire Police Seize Bitcoin Value Appreciates by $665,000】Golden Finance reports that the Lancashire Police in the UK seized Bitcoin converted by criminals in 2017, and due to the surge in Bitcoin prices, they achieved a surplus of $1.3 million after liquidation. According to UK law, victims can only be compensated for the original amount, and the police will allocate $665,000 (£500,000) to a fund for combating crime, which will be used for purchasing drones, anti-fraud equipment, and more. The remaining amount will be turned over to the government. The police stated that this move allows for full compensation to the victims while additional funds will be used for crime prevention. The criminals involved have been sentenced.
