The Rules · from Part 3
Can crypto be traced?
Short answer
Yes. In 2022 the US seized about 94,636 bitcoin (~$3.6 billion) stolen in the 2016 Bitfinex hack: blockchain analysis tied ~2,000 wallet addresses to the theft, and two people were charged with money-laundering conspiracy.
Crypto feels anonymous. It isn't. Every bitcoin transaction is written to a public ledger forever, and specialized firms (and law enforcement) map which wallets belong to whom.
