- The cybercrime unit seized BTC worth 5.7M Australian dollars during a darknet investigation.
- Police called it a major crypto seizure linked to darknet activity, following a similar 2021 case.
Australian cybercrime
detectives seized 52 Bitcoin worth about A$5.7 million, equivalent to roughly
$4.1 million, during an investigation into an alleged darknet marketplace
operating from Sydney, authorities said.

Police described the
case as one of Australia’s largest cryptocurrency seizures linked to darknet
activity. The operation follows another
major seizure in 2021, when Victoria Police confiscated digital assets
valued at A$6.2 million from a separate alleged darknet investigation.
Sydney Darknet Probe Seizes Bitcoin
The latest seizure
followed a 15-month investigation led by Strike Force Andalusia, a unit within
the New South Wales Police Force’s State Crime Command Cyber Crime Squad.
Investigators said the operation focused on alleged criminal activity involving
cryptocurrency transactions on the darknet.
Detectives later
executed a search warrant at a property in Ingleburn, southwest Sydney. During
the raid, officers seized electronic devices and identified 52.3 Bitcoin that
police allege were linked to illegal darknet activity.
Authorities said two
men, aged 41 and 39, allegedly had access to the digital wallet connected to
the funds. Both are expected to face court proceedings later this year.

AUSTRAC “Tightens” Crypto Sector
Oversight
Detective
Superintendent Matt Craft said the seizure was “one of the biggest
cryptocurrency seizures in the nation’s history.” He added that the
investigation showed “criminal activity on the darknet is not anonymous.”
Craft also said
darknet marketplaces remain “a key enabler of serious criminal activity.”
Meanwhile, Australian
authorities continue to tighten oversight of the cryptocurrency sector. Earlier
this year, the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre, or AUSTRAC,
said it
was investigating more than 50 remittance and digital asset providers over
alleged reporting failures and weaknesses in suspicious transaction monitoring.
