Title: [2016-09-12] Europol Establishes Bitcoin Money Laundering Division
Post by: trinaldao on September 12, 2016, 02:40:46 AM
The European Commission's war on Bitcoin continues as EU authorities announced Friday plans to create a working group at Europol to deal with digital currency money laundering operations.

Three organizations will be in charge of the group's day-to-day operations: Europol, INTERPOL, and the Basel Institute on Governance.

The working group comes as the latest phase in a plan set in motion last autumn, after the Paris terrorist attacks from November 13, 2015.
