THE US SEIZED MILLIONS IN CRYPTO FROM TERRORIST GROUPS
Futurism
U.S. federal law enforcement recently seized millions of dollars’ worth of cryptocurrency from a trio of terrorist organizations.
The seizure, which is the world’s largest, funneled funding away from al-Qaeda, ISIS, and the al-Qassam Brigades, which is a militant wing of Hamas, NBC News reports. On its own, it’s a major counterterrorist achievement, but it also serves as a reminder that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies aren’t nearly as anonymous as some might have you believe.
