Скачать или смотреть Cryptocurrency Use In Human Trafficking Jump 85% in 2025: Report | Firstpost America | N18G

A new investigation shows cryptocurrency is increasingly funding global human trafficking networks. A Chainalysis report found payments to suspected trafficking groups surged 85% in 2025, with hundreds of millions of dollars traced across public blockchains. Many operations were linked to scam compounds and illegal gambling hubs in Southeast Asia, while customers came from the Americas, Europe, and Australia. Investigators identified four main models: escort services, prostitution rings, recruitment scams, and child abuse material vendors. Traffickers used stablecoins and Telegram-based laundering groups that processed over $16 billion. Experts warn that the adoption of crypto will expand both legitimate use and crime, though blockchain transparency also helps authorities track networks.
