Illicit cryptocurrency on-chain transaction volume reaches all-time highs of $20.1 billion, growing for the second year in a row, according to a recent report<\/a> by Chainalysis.<\/p>\n

The report said:<\/p>\n

We have to stress that this is a lower-bound estimate \u2014 our measure of illicit transaction volume is sure to grow over time as we identify new addresses associated with illicit activity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The figure does not include proceeds from non-crypto native crimes, such as conventional drug trafficking involving cryptocurrency payments.<\/p>\n

Of the $20.1 billion, 44% came from activity associated with sanctioned entities<\/a>. Last year, the U.S. sanctioned cryptocurrency mixing services Blender and Tornado Cash<\/a>, alleging they were used to launder billions of dollars from North Korea.<\/p>\n

Further, the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) implemented some of its most severe crypto sanctions in 2022.\u00a0 It has been estimated that OFAC Sanctions have cost cybercriminals $15M in potential revenue<\/a> in the past two months.<\/p>\n

Conventional Crypto Related crimes declined<\/h2>\n

On a positive note, the volumes of transactions related to more conventional cryptocurrency-related crimes, such as darknet marketing and terrorism financing, decreased. In contrast, the percentage of crypto funds stolen increased by 7% YOY.<\/p>\n

According to Chainalysis, the market downturn of 2022 might explain the slump since the crypto market went below $1 trillion from $3 trillion<\/a> last year. Previous research<\/a> has shown that crypto scams are less profitable in bear markets. The report said:<\/p>\n

In general, less money in crypto overall tends to correlate with less money associated with crypto crime.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Worth noting that illicit crypto activities have increased for the first time since 2019, from 0.12% in 2021 to 0.24% in 2022.<\/p>\n

In addition, illicit activity in cryptocurrency is responsible for less than 1% of the overall volume.\u00a0 Although crypto-related crime increased in 2022, Chainalysis maintained that the trend remained downward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
