Submission + - Swiss Illegal Cryptocurrency Mixing Service Shut Down (europa.eu)
krouic writes: From 24 to 28 November 2025, Europol supported an action week conducted by law enforcement authorities from Switzerland and Germany in Zurich, Switzerland. The operation focused on taking down the illegal cryptocurrency mixing service ‘Cryptomixer’, which is suspected of facilitating cybercrime and money laundering.
Three servers were seized in Switzerland, along with the cryptomixer.io domain. The operation resulted in the confiscation of over 12 terabytes of data and more than EUR 25 million worth of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin. After the illegal service was taken over and shut down, law enforcement placed a seizure banner on the website.
