Authorities were getting worried regarding the hidden activities in the Darknet marketplace. Scammers were finding a way to sell illicit goods by taking the crypto as payment and crypto criminals were also using the illegally earned crypto to purchase goods from the darknet marketplace.
Recently, the biggest darknet marketplace named Sipulimarket shut down, and Europol and Finnish Customs (Tulli) has also seized the Bitcoin from the site. Sipulimarket was operating its services based on the Tor network.
Looking like concerned authorities have already developed advanced techniques to detect the activities based on the darknet marketplace. So what do you think, will this sort of operation will help to prevent crypto crimes in the future?
