Tron, Tether and Chainalysis launched the Digital Crime Task Force to proactively detect illicit USDT activity on the Tron blockchain and enable law enforcement to freeze funds before they are moved. The unit relies on Chainalysis’s artificial intelligence tools and will address threats ranging from romance and investment scams and stolen assets to terrorist financing, North Korean cyberoperations and cartel money laundering. It replaces the T3 Financial Crime Unit, created with TRM Labs, which froze more than $450 million in tainted assets before being quietly disbanded in late August because of slow response times and poor coordination among its members. Tether says it has frozen more than $7 billion tied to illicit activity while working with over 360 law enforcement agencies across 73 countries, and more than $94 billion in USDT circulates on Tron.
