Crypto Use in Illicit Activities
Do you think that Maduro was actually using crypto aggressively to launder?
I think there's a combination of both Maduro himself
and then some of the other malign actors like narco terrorists and like Hezbollah
that were resident in
Venezuela that absolutely were using crypto.
150 billion a year, like I said earlier, was flowing to illicit actors and to
malign sites via crypto.
And no doubt in our hemisphere,
the closest biggest example of that was Maduro and Venezuela.
But it doesn't just stop with them.
Any transnational criminal organization, any narco terrorist,
any human trafficker would love to see a clarity act with loopholes because it
gives them the game plan and how to continue their malign activities.
