最新报道：According to Bijie.com, companies such as Binance, Bitfinex, Coinbase, Crypto.com, HTX, Kraken, PayPal, Poloniex, Ripple, and Zodia Custody have signed up as the first users of the Beacon Network, a new crime-fighting initiative led by analytics platform TRM Labs. According to a Wednesday announcement, the organization, along with leading federal law enforcement agencies, aims to combat cryptocurrency crime by flagging addresses and key threats in real time, hoping to provide early alerts to prevent bad actors from cashing out. "Protecting consumers and maintaining the integrity of the cryptocurrency ecosystem requires seamless collaboration between industry and law enforcement," Kraken Chief Compliance Officer CJ Rinaldi said in a statement. The so-called Beacon Network aims to eliminate barriers between potential competitors to enhance overall awareness of the cryptocurrency ecosystem. The monitoring device features four primary services: "flagging and broadcasting" of suspicious activity, "real-time alerts" sent when suspicious funds reach participating companies, and "rapid response" for proactive review and holding of flagged deposits. According to the announcement, verified exchanges and law enforcement partners can opt in to the Beacon Network free of charge. "There's no project like the Beacon Network," said Valerie-Leila Jaber, Head of Anti-Money Laundering at Coinbase Global. "It's a true early warning system that helps us identify and freeze illicit assets so law enforcement can recover them. This is critical for protecting victims and safeguarding the broader ecosystem. Access to real-time intelligence is a game changer." TRM Labs estimates that at least $470 billion in cryptocurrency has been sent to addresses linked to fraud since 2023. Specifically, the group will focus on preventing funds from leaving the cryptocurrency ecosystem, particularly from attacks by North Korean hackers, ransomware users, terrorist financiers, and CSAM-related financial flows. Generally speaking, any vetted member, law enforcement member, or reputable security researcher will be able to submit a claim to track and attempt the release of funds. The group will be open to stablecoin issuers, DeFi platforms, centralized exchanges, security researchers, and other trusted members of the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
