Bitcoin Exchange Changelly CEO: In Touch with European Cybercrime CenterWannaCry ransom funds were moved from Bitcoin to Monero, and now the exchanges involved are assisting police to find the perpetrators.
Earlier today, Cointelegraph reported on how ShapeShift was working with law enforcement after funds sent to WannaCry hackers during the attack in May suddenly moved through the service this week.
A diagram of the movements of the coins created by BlockSeer showed that Changelly was also involved in moving the funds.
Criminals sent over five BTC in multiple transactions via the instant service that doesn’t require revealing identities.
Now, Changelly is assisting Europol in tracing those behind the transactions, hoping it will lead to a better understanding of the parties at the center of the attack.
Cointelegraph spoke to Changelly CEO Konstant Gladych about the process and what it means for instant exchange services.
