UK law enforcement has seized $1.7 billion worth of Bitcoin. Earlier, a former restaurant employee named Jian Wen attempted to use the Bitcoin to purchase a luxury home in London worth about $30 million, but the purchase was unsuccessful due to their inability to explain the source of the encrypted assets. It is reported that Jian Wen became a British citizen in 2018 and is suspected of being recruited to assist Zhimin Qian in money laundering, accused of representing Zhimin Qian in converting Bitcoin into cash, luxury goods, and real estate.
