Tron, Tether, and TRM Labs report that their collaborative financial crime unit has frozen over $250 million in illicit cryptocurrency assets since its inception less than a year ago. The T3 Financial Crime Unit (T3 FCU), launched in September 2024, aims to monitor and disrupt illegal blockchain transactions. This amount is more than double the $100 million intercepted in the first six months. The unit collaborates with global law enforcement on various financial crimes, including money laundering and terrorism financing. The newly introduced T3+ program invites exchanges and financial institutions to share intelligence and respond to threats in real time. Justin Sun, founder of Tron, emphasized the need for enhanced collaboration to tackle illicit activities effectively. A recent report highlighted that over $3 billion in crypto was stolen in early 2025, with hackers laundering funds at unprecedented speeds. While T3 FCU has made significant recoveries, the debate continues over the implications of centralized control in the crypto space. Read more AI-generated news on: https://app.chaingpt.org/news
