Every year since 2017, blockchain analysis company <\/span>Chainalysis<\/span><\/a> publishes a report focusing on money laundering and illicit transactions going through the cryptocurrency ecosystem. This year's report <\/span>summary<\/span><\/a> shows that while the total amount of laundered money increased by 30%, only a small fraction of all transactions come from illicit activities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As per the report, cybercriminals dealing in cryptocurrency share one common goal: Move their ill-gotten funds to a service where they can be kept safe from the authorities and eventually converted to cash. That\u2019s why money laundering underpins all other forms of cryptocurrency-based crime.<\/span><\/p>\n

Nominal 30% increase from 2020<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Cybercriminals laundered $8.6 billion worth of cryptocurrency in 2021, a 30% increase from 2020, going by the amount of cryptocurrency sent from illicit addresses to addresses hosted by services.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite this, money laundering accounted for just 0.05% of all cryptocurrency transaction volume in 2021, compared to the amount of laundered fiat currency \u2013 5%\u2013 that makes up global GDP. This highlights that money laundering is a plague on virtually all forms of economic value transfer.<\/span><\/p>\n

Money laundering activity in cryptocurrency is also heavily concentrated. While billions of dollars\u2019 worth of cryptocurrency moves from illicit addresses every year, most of it ends up at a surprisingly small group of services, many of which appear purpose-built for money laundering based on their transaction histories.<\/span><\/p>\n

Law enforcement can strike a huge blow against cryptocurrency-based crime and significantly hamper criminals\u2019 ability to access their digital assets by disrupting these services.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

DeFi is playing a bigger role<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Though the overall percentage of illicit transactions are low, <\/span>DeFi<\/span><\/a> is increasingly playing a bigger role in money laundering, with decentralized protocols receiving 17% of all funds sent from illicit wallets in 2021, up from 2% the previous year. This translates to a 1,964% year-over-year increase in total value received by DeFi protocols from illicit addresses. Centralized protocols remain more popular, taking in 47% of funds from illicit addresses.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, going by the amount of cryptocurrency sent from illicit addresses to addresses hosted by services, cybercriminals laundered $8.6 billion worth of cryptocurrency in 2021. That represents a 30% increase in money laundering activity over 2020, though such an increase is unsurprising given the significant growth of both legitimate and illicit cryptocurrency activity in 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fiat money laundering 5% of global GDP<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Cybercriminals have laundered over $33 billion worth of cryptocurrency since 2017, with most of the total over time moving to centralized exchanges. For comparison, the UN Office of Drugs and Crime <\/span>estimates<\/span><\/a> that between $800 billion and $2 trillion of fiat currency is laundered each year \u2014 as much as 5% of global GDP.<\/span><\/p>\n

Addresses associated with theft sent just under half of their stolen funds to DeFi platforms \u2013 over $750 million worth of cryptocurrency in total. North Korea-affiliated hackers in particular, who were responsible for $400 million worth of cryptocurrency <\/span>hacks<\/span><\/a> last year, used DeFi protocols for money laundering quite a bit.<\/span><\/p>\n

This may be related to the fact that more cryptocurrency was stolen from DeFi protocols than any other type of platform last year. Chainalysis also sees a substantial amount of mixer usage in the laundering of stolen funds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Scammers, on the other hand, send the majority of their funds to addresses at centralized exchanges. This may reflect scammers\u2019 relative lack of sophistication.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
