PANews reported on December 13th that, according to Decrypt, Florida prosecutors seized approximately $1.5 million in cryptocurrency linked to a foreign suspect (Chinese citizen Tu Weizhi). The wallet contained AVAX, DOGE, PEPE, and SOL. The Florida Attorney General's Office's Cyber Fraud Enforcement Division has obtained a court order to freeze assets under Tu Weizhi's name. Tu Weizhi is currently charged with money laundering, grand theft, and organized fraud. Florida authorities stated that Tu Weizhi will be arrested if he attempts to enter the United States.

Investigators indicated that the seizure stemmed from an investigation that began in July 2024 when a resident of Orange County reported losing $47,421. The resident had transferred the money to what appeared to be an online investment project. The investigation ultimately linked the funds to a wallet controlled by Tu Weizhi.

UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach

The post UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The UK and US are reportedly preparing to deepen cooperation on digital assets, with Britain looking to copy the Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance in a bid to boost innovation.  UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed on Tuesday how the two nations could strengthen their coordination on crypto, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.  The discussions also involved representatives from crypto companies, including Coinbase, Circle Internet Group and Ripple, with executives from the Bank of America, Barclays and Citi also attending, according to the report. The agreement was made “last-minute” after crypto advocacy groups urged the UK government on Thursday to adopt a more open stance toward the industry, claiming its cautious approach to the sector has left the country lagging in innovation and policy.  Source: Rachel Reeves Deal to include stablecoins, look to unlock adoption Any deal between the countries is likely to include stablecoins, the Financial Times reported, an area of crypto that US President Donald Trump made a policy priority and in which his family has significant business interests. The Financial Times reported on Monday that UK crypto advocacy groups also slammed the Bank of England’s proposal to limit individual stablecoin holdings to between 10,000 British pounds ($13,650) and 20,000 pounds ($27,300), claiming it would be difficult and expensive to implement. UK banks appear to have slowed adoption too, with around 40% of 2,000 recently surveyed crypto investors saying that their banks had either blocked or delayed a payment to a crypto provider.  Many of these actions have been linked to concerns over volatility, fraud and scams.
