According to market news, Colombia and U.S. law enforcement agencies have jointly acted to successfully dismantle a transnational cryptocurrency money laundering network associated with the Mexican "Jalisco New Generation Cartel" (CJNG). Since 2023, this network has transferred over $190 million in illegal funds through cryptocurrency channels, seizing multiple crypto wallets and cash on site.

Investigations show that the network commonly employs tactics such as fund splitting, decentralized transfers across multiple wallets, circulation across jurisdictions, and token swaps to evade tracking. Currently, authorities have not disclosed specific details regarding the cryptocurrencies involved, trading platforms, or the number of arrests, and the investigation is still ongoing.
