On Tuesday, December 13, officers from the Lara State Police Force raided a warehouse in Barquisimeto with 21 cryptocurrency mining machines.
According to information published by the journalist Marlyn Silva in El Impulso , each machine is valued at $ 7,000 and presumably belong to the lawyer Daniel Andrés Di Bartolomeo Viloria, who left the country before the execution of the procedure.
The director of security and public order Lara, Kleider Ferreiro, reported that the crimes committed in this case are "money laundering, illicit enrichment, cybercrime, financing of terrorism, exchange fraud and damage to the national electricity system."
"These types of changes, which are illicit exchange rates, take the bolivars, convert them into virtual currency and that virtual currency is exchanged for dollars or for any other currency. In this way, exchange controls, the financial system, and controls against the legitimization of capital violate, constituting the crime of legitimizing capital and financing terrorism, "he said.
