According to Mars Finance, Caixin published an article titled “Building a Firewall Against Virtual Currencies to Protect the Public’s Wallet.” The article points out that speculation in virtual currencies has recently increased, and establishing a firewall against virtual currencies relies not only on full cooperation among various departments but also on improving relevant regulations, enhancing regulatory standards, strengthening technical monitoring capabilities for key areas, and protecting normal economic and trade activities. Data shows that in 2024, relevant departments prosecuted 3,032 people for money laundering crimes such as transferring criminal proceeds using “virtual currency.” Many individuals were implicated due to a lack of legal awareness. Researchers analyzed 283 verdicts in virtual currency money laundering cases and found that criminal groups often use marginalized young people as tools for crime, with significant regional concentration and most having only junior or senior high school education.
