Cyber thefts intensify as cryptocurrencies take more ground on the planet, which has led countries to track them, managing to obtain some information from the groups involved in this vandalism. One of the nations that has insisted on capturing them is the United States, which after its process of regulating these currencies, especially Bitcoin, has taken its task of protecting its citizens seriously, for which it offers a total of 15 million dollars to those users who have any kind of information about the whereabouts of one of the most wanted organizations in the world, which goes by the name Conti, is a group of hackers that have operated from their headquarters in Russia and have caused uncertainty in several places , causing over a thousand attacks. The objective of this operation is that:
By awarding this reward, the United States underscores its commitment to preventing cybercriminals from exploiting potential ransomware victims around the world.
So says the State Department official.
I wonder if with these rewards that are granted, these criminals can be captured, or simply prevent them from continuing with their illegal acts, I think it is difficult to stop them completely, these types of events are very common and are very similar to the money laundering as it grows and gets stronger and stronger.
Do you think the United States can meet its goal?
