š Why check cryptocurrency for purity?
š Average users, like you and me, sometimes don't even realize that funds received from exchangers or other users may have a dark origin.
š° In the last 6 years, known crypto addresses linked to illicit activities have processed around $60 billion. These funds were "laundered" through exchanges, mixers, and ordinary users' accounts.
š If you accept "dirty" funds into your wallet and transfer even a small portion of them to an exchange, your wallet may be seized or blocked. Such sanctions regarding these funds may occur not immediately, but six months later, when someone within the framework of a case initiates a criminal investigation and the police reach you through the chain. And you may have nothing to do with it, but your funds will be blocked or seized. ā
š Therefore, it is critical to know the history of the origin of the funds in your cryptocurrency wallet, as well as to check the crypto wallets of counterparties and incoming transactions.
