A British court has postponed the final sentencing of Wen Jian, a British-Chinese national involved in the country's largest Bitcoin money laundering case, until May 24.

PANews reported on May 11 that according to Sanlian Life Weekly, Jian Wen, a 42-year-old British-Chinese in the UK's largest Bitcoin money laundering case, was found guilty of "participating in arranging money laundering" by the British court and could be sentenced to up to 14 years in prison. Jian Wen's defense lawyer Mark Harries said that due to the judge's busy affairs, the British court has postponed the final verdict on Jian Wen, which was originally scheduled for May 10, to May 24. During the investigation of Wen and Qian, the British police seized more than 61,000 bitcoins, the largest amount of cryptocurrency ever seized in the UK (based on the conversion of one bitcoin to about 50,190 pounds on May 10, it is worth about 3.06 billion pounds). Jian Wen was arrested in a two-bedroom apartment in South London. It is reported that she has returned to work in a restaurant and lives with her son. In the apartment, the police found a handwritten note: "I'll be dead if they break the BTC code."
