The anti-drug enforcement agency in Thailand is doubling down their efforts on investigating and exposing the drug networks that utilize various methods of money laundering, including cryptocurrencies. They publicly stated that the drug networks in Asia are using plenty of clever ways to launder their money, including via construction companies, gold merchants, as well as crypto trading.
The agency even admitted that it’s not possible to predict the real number of these drug networks’ revenues. In the beginning, they noticed the unusual money flow in some bank accounts worth $5.4 billion US dollar - and they are quite sure at least almost $400 million of that amount is related to drug dealing activities.
