BlockBeats news, on November 8, according to Guangming Net, the Ministry of National Security announced a major case involving virtual currency investment and national security. A public official from a sensitive unit suffered losses in virtual currency investment, subsequently sold national secrets, and was ultimately sentenced to life imprisonment.
Wang certain was originally a public official in a sensitive unit, regarded as a good young man by his unit and family. Due to significant losses in virtual currency investment, he posted on an online forum 'seeking part-time work' and revealed his identity as a public official. This behavior attracted the attention of foreign spy intelligence agencies, which successfully enticed Wang certain to betray his country with high remuneration.
The investigation by the national security agency shows that Wang certain provided top-secret and confidential national secrets to foreign forces. He obtained espionage funds equivalent to over 1 million yuan through methods such as virtual currency recharge and trading. Ultimately, Wang certain was sentenced to life imprisonment for espionage by the people's court and was deprived of political rights for life.
