Global cooperation against crypto-related financial crime is accelerating as blockchain-based enforcement models continue to mature. The T3 Financial Crime Unit (T3 FCU), a collaboration between Tether, Tron, and TRM Labs, announced on Oct. 31 that it has frozen over $300 million in illicit assets since its inception in September 2024. The initiative represents a growing trend of public–private coordination aimed at strengthening the global response to crypto-enabled financial misconduct, including money laundering, fraud, and organized crime.

Tether stated:

The T3 Financial Crime Unit (T3 FCU), a joint initiative from Tether, Tron, and TRM Labs, has frozen more than USD 300 million in criminal assets globally, marking another major milestone in the fight against cryptocurrency-related financial crime

Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, opined: “Reaching the USD 300 million milestone demonstrates the real-world impact of blockchain technology in combating financial crime. We’ve consistently backed that belief with action, working closely with global law enforcement agencies to monitor transactions and disrupt criminal activity, and we’ll continue working closely with partners worldwide to ensure stablecoins remain a force for transparency and security.”

Tron Founder Justin Sun commented: “The T3 Financial Crime Unit’s USD 300 million milestone is proof that progress happens when technology, institutions, and people work together. By building trust and cooperation across borders, we can make the digital economy safer and more accessible for everyone.”

Over the past year, T3 FCU has supported law enforcement efforts in 23 jurisdictions, including major operations in the United States, Europe, and Brazil. Its contribution to Brazil’s Operation Lusocoin, which resulted in the seizure of R$3 billion in assets, illustrates the potential of blockchain analytics in disrupting large-scale criminal networks. Beyond enforcement, the unit has expanded its reach through the T3+ Global Collaborator Program—joined by Binance—and has played an active role in international policy discussions alongside Europol and the Basel Institute on Governance.
