🚨【Has Bitcoin Finally Been "Legitimized" by the Court?】
A final ruling has been issued in a Bitcoin theft case in Qingdao, Shandong.
The defendant took advantage of their role in managing wallets to secretly record the mnemonic phrases, then transferred 107 BTC from the victim, valued at approximately 22.54 million at the time of the incident ($BTC ).
Ultimately, the court sentenced them to 10 years and 9 months for theft.
But what's truly noteworthy isn't the sentence.
It's the court's clear statement in the judgment:
👉 Virtual currencies possess property attributes that are protected by criminal law.
What does this mean?
For a long time, many have debated:
"Is Bitcoin really considered property?"
"Can a theft of coins be prosecuted?"
This case provides a very clear judicial answer.
Although virtual currencies are not legal tender, the property rights associated with them are increasingly gaining recognition on a legal level.
For the entire crypto industry, this may be more significant than the 107 BTC itself.
