An event Trump hosted at the White House took aim at overseas crypto scams. The Treasury Department’s Scam Center Strike Force focuses on pig-butchering scams, and its results speak for themselves: it has blocked about $833 million in fraudulent crypto transactions, shut down 503 scam websites, and notified nearly 9,000 American victims.
The significance for the industry goes beyond “cracking down on bad actors”: tackling scams on this scale will move regulators’ approach to crypto from vague to concrete—cracking down where needed while making the path to compliance clearer. Pig-butchering scams mainly target newcomers. This operation is also a reminder: high-return group chats paired with friendly messages from strangers are practically straight out of the playbook.
Market snapshot: BTC $84,617 (+2.1%), ETH $2,490 (+1.4%).
