DOJ Seizes Huione Infrastructure Linked to Billions in Crypto Laundering

On June 24, 2026, the U.S. Justice Department seized a cloud computing account used by Huione Group, a conglomerate accused of laundering billions from crypto fraud. The account facilitated the movement and concealment of funds linked to investment scams and cybercrimes. Prosecutors highlighted that this seizure undermines one of the largest criminal marketplaces, as it enabled discussions and transactions involving stolen data and crypto laundering services. The crackdown builds on a year of regulatory actions against Huione, which was labeled a primary money laundering concern last October by FinCEN.
