Is there still a way out for the domestic cryptocurrency industry? As one wave settles, another rises. According to data from various platforms on the 14th and 15th, a large number of mining sites in the country have been shut down, with about 500,000 mining machines offline. Essentially, this is a further crackdown on the virtual currency industry in the country. It can be said that this clearance has completely withdrawn us from the global mining capacity competition, and it can also be said that the era of strict regulation and severe crackdowns in the domestic cryptocurrency industry officially begins with this cleanup. The clearing of the cryptocurrency industry has already started, and any behavior that ignores legal red lines and policy bottom lines will pay a heavy price. Compliance is no longer a matter of choice, but the lifeline of the cryptocurrency industry. This is both a necessary legal requirement and an objective law of development for the domestic cryptocurrency market. #加密市场观察 #挖矿算力
Got scammed 2 million tuition fees by a fake exchange
A few days ago, I received an inquiry from a client saying that he couldn't withdraw the money from the exchange linked by a stranger. He had a total of 1 million RMB in USDT, plus the profit part, totaling 10 million RMB. When he found out that he couldn't withdraw, he contacted the platform's customer service and was told he needed to pay 1 million in taxes. He really paid the 1 million in taxes, and subsequently, he certainly didn't withdraw any of it.. During the communication with him, I clearly informed him that the other party was scamming him, and the exchange was also fake. He still didn't believe it and hoped to negotiate with the exchange to get his money back.
In criminal cases in the cryptocurrency world, eight or nine out of ten individuals end up failing during the interrogation phase! Today, let's talk about how ordinary people should correctly respond when questioned about receiving illicit funds.
First, before the interrogation begins, do not overthink or imagine the worst outcomes. You risk breaking down your psychological defenses even before it starts! First, clarify your actual situation: what have you done? Time, place, people... Are you clear about the nature of this money? If you can’t remember, you can’t remember; never rush and say something incorrect. Remind yourself that panic won't solve any problems, and the calmer you are, the less likely you are to make mistakes!
Sometimes, even after the record is completed, they will repeatedly ask you about the same matter. At this point, be careful not to say anything wrong. If you haven't done something, then you haven't done it—avoid ambiguous answers. Words like "maybe" and "should" can become evidence for conviction; saying one wrong word could mean you might not get out today!
We don’t lie, and we shouldn’t talk too much. Sometimes, telling one lie requires ten more to cover it up! For any time unrelated to the case, explain when necessary, but do not avoid the questions.
Finally, if the case is indeed very complex and you don't know how to respond, you must contact your lawyer immediately. The lawyer will help you determine what should be said and what should not be said; that is the most practical protection!
Remember, in the cryptocurrency world, problems that can be solved with money are not considered problems. #法律责任 $BTC
Under the new regulations of the thirteen departments, where is China's Web3 era headed? The essence of this new regulation is very different from the 924 document of 2021. The old regulation merely clarified the illegality of virtual currency transactions, simply stating that buying and selling U is not allowed, and only discussed the illegal aspects. But the new regulation is different; its core focuses more on joint efforts by departments to combat these behaviors, not just stating that they are illegal, but clearly indicating that they will take proactive measures to crack down on such actions. The second difference is that the new regulation establishes a joint coordination mechanism. It can be understood that previously there was just a red line saying, "this action is prohibited," but now a dedicated team has been formed, making it clear that "this time it is specifically to combat such behaviors." Another key point is that the new regulation directly points out stablecoins within virtual currencies, such as USDT and USDC, which are tied to fiat currency and are under scrutiny. The new regulations from the 13 ministries explicitly aim to combat these stablecoins, also stating that stablecoins are mainly suspected of three types of problems: first, money laundering; second, fraud; and third, being exploited by underground banks to transfer domestic funds through related financial transactions. Therefore, I believe that the new regulations from the 13 ministries will definitely have a much greater crackdown intensity than previous regulations, and it is estimated that there will be a major cleansing in the industry in the next two to three months. The purpose of the new regulations is not to terminate but to rebuild under the rules. Virtual currency-related businesses can no longer survive in the country, but the legitimate development of blockchain technology still has broad prospects, achieving sustainable development within the regulatory framework. #web3 #美SEC推动加密创新监管 #宏观经济 #加密市场回调
Recently, many friends have come to Xiao Tang for consultation: When withdrawing cash offline, the other party clearly received the U, but falsely claimed they did not receive it, or that there was a problem with the address, using various excuses to delay, and in the end directly scamming the U! Victims often don't know how to protect their rights and are afraid that reporting to the police will not lead to any action, leaving them to suffer in silence. Today, Xiao Tang will break down the common tricks of offline cash withdrawal scams and teach everyone how to legally protect their rights!\n\nVirtual currency offline cash withdrawals are easy targets for scammers; they exploit the specifics of transactions and the victims' concerns about the source of the currency to commit fraud/robbery,\n\nThere are three common tricks: First, displaying cash for verification, then waiting for the victim to transfer the currency before absconding with the money; Second, after successfully scamming, they turn around and report to the police, falsely accusing the victim and restricting their freedom; Third, when being investigated, they use "unknown source of currency" as an excuse, attempting to distort the criminal case into a civil dispute.\n\nVirtual currencies are legally protected virtual property, and victims can protect their rights step by step: First, secure all chain evidence, including transaction communication records, proof of currency transfer receipt, on-site monitoring, and clues about the scammer's identity; Second, report accurately, report robbery as robbery and currency fraud as fraud, if the investigating authority refuses to file a case citing "virtual currency transactions are illegal," it is necessary to clarify that the core issue is the criminal behavior of the scammer; Finally, against the scammer's excuses like "address not verified" or "problems with the currency source," use evidence to refute them, as issues with the currency source and the scammer's crime are independent legal relationships.\n\nWhen protecting rights, one must be wary of personal risks: If selling stolen currency, one may be involved in the crime of concealing or hiding criminal proceeds, and if the transaction is not completed, it may be deemed an attempt at a crime. The investigating authority will prioritize investigating the scammer and then check the victim's currency source issues, so do not give up on protecting your rights due to concerns.\n\nIt should be noted that virtual currency transactions are illegal financial activities in our country, and offline OTC transactions are not protected. It is recommended to stay away from offline private transactions, and if encountering a scam, consult a professional lawyer promptly to protect your rights within the legal framework.\n#出金 #场外交易 #维权
