負責在英格蘭和威爾士進行刑事起訴的機構宣布，國家犯罪局（NCA）官員將被指控涉嫌盜竊比特幣，價值約75,000美元。

The agency responsible for conducting criminal prosecutions in England and Wales announced that a National Crime Agency (NCA) officer was due to be charged with the alleged theft of Bitcoin worth roughly $75,000 in 2017.

負責在英格蘭和威爾士進行刑事起訴的機構宣布，國家犯罪局（NCA）官員將被指控涉嫌盜竊比特幣，價值約75,000美元。

In a March 14 notice, the Crown Prosecution Service said it had authorized the Merseyside Police to charge NCA officer Paul Chowles with 15 offenses related to the alleged Bitcoin (BTC) theft “during an investigation into online organised crime.” Authorities said Chowles could face one count of theft, 11 charges for concealing, disguising or converting criminal property and three counts for acquiring, using or possessing criminal property.

在3月14日的通知中，皇家檢察局表示，已授權默西塞德郡警察向NCA官員保羅·喬爾斯（Paul Chowles）指控與所謂的比特幣（BTC）盜竊有關的15項罪行“在調查在線有組織犯罪的過程中”。當局說，喬爾斯可能面臨一項盜竊罪，11項掩蓋，掩飾或轉換犯罪財產的指控以及三項用於獲取，使用或擁有犯罪財產的指控。

The 50 Bitcoin, worth roughly $75,000 before the December 2017 bull run, was valued at more than $4.2 million at the time of publication at a BTC price of $84,541. The NCA officer is expected to appear at the Liverpool Magistrates’ Court on April 25.Related: British man sues council for $647M over lost Bitcoin in landfill

在2017年12月公牛運行之前，該50個比特幣的價值約為75,000美元，在出版時的價值超過420萬美元，BTC價格為84,541美元。 NCA官員預計將於4月25日在利物浦治安法院出庭。

In April 2024, amendments to the UK’s Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act authorized NCA officers and local police to seize crypto from suspected criminals without arresting them. The Crown Prosecution Service did not mention how Chowles allegedly stole the Bitcoin or whether the funds were connected to illicit activities.

2024年4月，《英國經濟犯罪和公司透明度法》的修正案授權NCA官員和當地警察在沒有逮捕他們的情況下從可疑罪犯那里奪取加密貨幣。皇家檢察院沒有提及據稱chowles偷了比特幣，或資金是否與非法活動有關。

The NCA said in December 2024 that it had seized roughly $26 million in cash and crypto and arrested 84 people as part of a global campaign to fight money laundering and organised crime. Some of the crypto addresses targeted by UK authorities at the time “showed regular exposure to Garantex.” The founder of the Russian crypto exchange was arrested in India and is expected to be extradited to the US to face criminal charges.

NCA在2024年12月表示，它已經抓住了大約2600萬美元的現金和加密貨幣，並逮捕了84人，作為全球競選活動的一部分，以打擊洗錢和有組織犯罪。當時，英國當局針對的一些加密貨幣“表現出了定期接觸Garantex”。俄羅斯加密交易所的創始人在印度被捕，預計將被引渡到美國面臨刑事指控。

The UK government is expected to move forward on creating a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets in 2025 following the Labour government’s election victory. The country remains a significant market for crypto users, with Coinbase securing approval to operate from the financial regulatory body in February.

預計英國政府將在工黨政府選舉勝利之後，在2025年為數字資產創建全面的監管框架。該國仍然是加密使用者的重要市場，Coinbase獲得了2月份在金融監管機構中運營的批准。
