The T3 Financial Crime Department, supported by Tron, Tether, and others, has frozen assets worth $300 million.

On October 31st, the cryptocurrency law enforcement task force T3 Financial Crime Unit announced that during its first year of operation, the department has frozen $3 billion of illegal funds. This accomplishment has received praise from international law enforcement agencies and has demonstrated the self-regulatory capacity of the stablecoin industry. The department was established at the end of 2024 and was jointly formed by the stablecoin issuer Tether, the blockchain network Tron (TRON), and the blockchain intelligence platform TRM Labs. Initially, it was aimed at purifying stablecoin activities on the TRON network. Today, T3 has evolved into a global blockchain security law enforcement model, marking a significant transformation in the crypto industry towards compliance and accountability. The department is responsible for monitoring on-chain transactions and coordinating the seizure of high-risk assets, including "Ponzi schemes" and the flow of funds from European organized crime networks. Currently, its investigations have covered five continents. Most recently, the Brazilian Federal Police officially recognized T3's assistance in the "Lusocoin Operation", a major money laundering case, highlighting the increasingly crucial role of public-private cooperation in preventing crypto financial crime.
