👋 Hey Folks,

📢 Major Update Regarding $BTC $2.5 Billion!

🏙️ London Resident with $2,500,000,000 in Bitcoin Convicted for Money Laundering Charges

💼 Woman swapped Bitcoin (BTC) for fancy homes and jewelry found guilty of participating in a money laundering scheme.

📰 BBC states Jian Wen, a Chinese citizen residing in Hendon, North London, was found guilty at Southwark Crown Court on Monday.

🔍 In 2017, the 42-year-old impersonated a jewelry business employee to purchase lavish London properties, but faced hurdles passing money laundering checks.

💍 Hence, she opted to acquire jewelry in Zurich and luxurious estates in Dubai in 2019.

👮 The Metropolitan Police Service (Met) conducted an extensive investigation, scrutinizing 48 electronic devices and sifting through thousands of digital files, some translated from Mandarin.

💰 Police seized a Bitcoin stash initially valued at $2.52 billion, now worth approximately $4.28 billion, marking the largest seizure of its kind in the UK.

🔒 The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) secured a freezing order from the High Court, potentially leading to the forfeiture of the BTC assets.

🗣️ Detective Chief Superintendent Jason Prins stated, “This verdict and lengthy five-year investigation demonstrate our unwavering commitment to apprehend criminals benefiting from illicit funds, regardless of the case's complexity."
