一名洗錢價值數百萬美元比特幣（BTC）的男子在協助當局處理另一起備受矚目的加密貨幣洗錢案後被判處三年監禁。

A man who laundered millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin (BTC) has been sentenced to three years in prison after assisting authorities with another high-profile crypto laundering case.

一名洗錢價值數百萬美元比特幣（BTC）的男子在協助當局處理另一起備受矚目的加密貨幣洗錢案後被判處三年監禁。

According to a new report by Bloomberg, Larry Harmon – who pleaded guilty to running a crypto mixing service on the dark web in 2021 – has been sentenced to three years for his role in laundering $300 million worth of Bitcoin on behalf of drug traffickers.

根據彭博社最新報道，拉里·哈蒙 (Larry Harmon) 承認在 2021 年在暗網上運行加密貨幣混合服務，因代表毒販洗錢價值 3 億美元的比特幣而被判處三年徒刑。

Initially, Harmon faced up to 20 years in prison. However, after cooperating with authorities and testifying against Roman Sterlingov, the founder of Bitcoin Fog – another crypto mixing service he was involved in – Harmon was able to earn a lighter sentence.

最初，哈蒙面臨最高 20 年的監禁。然而，在與當局合作並作證指控比特幣霧（他參與的另一個加密貨幣混合服務）的創始人羅曼·斯特林戈夫（Roman Sterlingov）後，哈蒙獲得了較輕的判決。

The judge of the case gave him a three-year sentence for his assistance even though he was recommended a harsher sentence of at least six years.

儘管建議對他判處至少六年的更嚴厲刑期，但該案的法官因他的協助而判處他三年徒刑。

Harmon was also ordered to forfeit $311 million worth of BTC and was hit with a $60 million fine by the U.S. Treasury Department.

Harmon 也被美國財政部命令沒收價值 3.11 億美元的 BTC，並處以 6,000 萬美元的罰款。

In a court filing, the prosecutors in the case said Harmon “took full responsibility for his actions, pleaded guilty, expressed genuine remorse, and cooperated extensively with the government,” according to Bloomberg.

根據彭博社報道，該案檢察官在一份法庭文件中表示，哈蒙「對自己的行為承擔全部責任，認罪，表達真誠的悔意，並與政府廣泛合作」。

Earlier this month, Sterlingov was sentenced to 12.5 years in prison for operating Bitcoin Fog, which processed over 1.2 million BTC worth about $400 million between 2011 and 2021.

本月早些時候，斯特林戈夫因營運 Bitcoin Fog 被判處 12.5 年監禁，該公司在 2011 年至 2021 年間處理了超過 120 萬枚比特幣，價值約 4 億美元。

According to the Department of Justice, most of the funds mixed through the service stemmed from criminal activities linked to drugs, computer crimes, identity theft and other illicit acts.

據司法部稱，透過該服務混入的大部分資金來自與毒品、電腦犯罪、身分盜竊和其他非法行為有關的犯罪活動。
