Binance Backs India's Darknet Crackdown with Blockchain Forensics

Binance's CEO, Richard Teng, confirmed on social media that the cryptocurrency exchange actively supported Indian authorities in a darknet drug trafficking investigation.

The collaboration between Binance and India's Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) involved tracing on-chain fund flows to dismantle a darknet drug network.

This case highlights a growing trend where blockchain analytics are used to track illicit financial flows, providing decisive clues for law enforcement agencies.

Teng stated that cryptocurrency is not a friend to criminals but often provides critical information to catch them.
