Russia uses Crypto Assets money laundering networks to fund the Marsalek spy organization.

According to ChainCatcher news, Bloomberg reports that the UK's National Crime Agency (NCA) revealed that Russian intelligence agencies are funding the spy organization of former Wirecard executive Jan Marsalek through a money laundering network that exchanges cash for Crypto Assets. The spy organization consists of six Bulgarian nationals who have been convicted of charges including espionage, monitoring journalists and political figures, and planning assassination attempts. British police stated that this network had posed a serious threat before being dismantled. The UK's National Crime Agency closed two Russian Money Laundering networks nearly a year ago, which had transferred billions of dollars globally. Investigations show that one of the networks attempted to fund the aforementioned espionage organization.
