The operation, involving agencies from the US and Europe, resulted in the arrest of two individuals in Georgia and the seizure of cryptocurrency, domains, and servers linked to the service. The investigation highlighted the ongoing threat of large-scale cryptocurrency laundering that supports ransomware operations and cybercrime.
