DOJ Arrests Founders of Crypto Mixer Samourai for $2 Billion in Illegal Transactions

[5.859]

The U.S. Department of Justice has arrested Keonne Rodriguez and William Lonergan Hill, the co-founders of a cryptocurrency mixer called Samourai. They are charged with money laundering and operating an unlicensed money transmitting business, and could face up to 25 years in prison each. The DOJ alleges that Samourai was intentionally designed to help criminals launder money and evade sanctions. The service laundered funds from various illegal sources, including dark web marketplaces and scams. Law enforcement in Iceland, Portugal, and Europol were also involved in the operation, which led to the seizure of Samourai's digital infrastructure and the removal of its app from the Google Play Store in the U.S. The service offered features like Whirlpool and Ricochet Send to obscure the origins of cryptocurrency transactions, allegedly to facilitate criminal activities.
