According to Decrypt, the US Department of Justice announced that in Operation RapOr, 10 countries worldwide arrested a total of 270 people, seized $200 million in cash and cryptocurrency assets, and seized over 2 tons of drugs, including 144 kilograms of fentanyl containing drugs. This is the largest law enforcement operation of the J-CODE project in the United States to date, focusing on cracking down on drug networks that trade through the dark web and cryptocurrency. During the operation, the operators of drug markets Nemesis and Incognito Market were also seized, and encrypted assets once again became the focus of cross-border criminal money laundering tools.
