Operation Lighthouse Exposes Crypto Abuse Network | Bitcoin and Crypto News
Description
A global crackdown led by Chainalysis has exposed over 7,700 crypto accounts tied to child sexual abuse material—part of Operation Lighthouse, which analyzed 29,000 addresses across 100+ platforms. The operation generated 14,300 investigative leads in 125 countries, including 16 registered sex offenders—and disturbingly, suspects included military personnel, law enforcement, doctors, and teachers. Powered by on-chain intelligence and a massive collaboration with exchanges like Binance and Coinbase, this unprecedented effort signals a new era of coordinated action against digital exploitation, with arrests and prosecutions expected.
