Tether, TRON, and TRM Labs say their T3 Financial Crime Unit has now frozen over $450M in illicit crypto assets 🚨

The group says it has already helped fight money laundering, fraud networks, and large crypto thefts.

This is part of a broader push to improve crypto’s reputation and show the industry can police itself πŸ‘€

Supporters see it as a sign that blockchain transparency can actually help fight financial crime more efficiently.

Still, stablecoins remain a major target for illicit activity and global regulators.
