Day 5 – The FBI Has a Crypto Task Force… and They’re Watching Closely
> 🕵️💰 Crypto Fact of the Day
Did you know the FBI runs a full-time crypto crime unit?
In 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice launched the National Cryptocurrency Enforcement Team (NCET) — a specialized force targeting crypto-related crime.
Their focus?
Darknet marketplaces
Crypto mixers
DeFi exploits
Fraud and exchange hacks
One of their first big wins? Seizing $3.6 billion in Bitcoin from the 2016 Bitfinex hack — the largest financial seizure in DOJ history.
So yeah… it’s decentralized, but it’s not invisible.
The blockchain might be open — but so are the FBI’s eyes. 👀
