[Russian Cryptocurrency Money Laundering Network Funds Spy Organization] The UK National Crime Agency (NCA) has revealed that Russian intelligence agencies used a cryptocurrency money laundering network to fund a spy organization led by former Wirecard executive Jan Marsalek. The organization, consisting of six Bulgarian nationals, has been convicted of espionage, surveilling journalists and political figures, and plotting assassinations. UK police stated that the network posed a significant threat before being dismantled. About a year ago, the NCA shut down two Russian money laundering networks that had transferred billions of dollars globally, one of which had attempted to fund the aforementioned spy organization.
