The United States and the United Kingdom have created a joint alliance to combat cryptocurrency scam centers.

Law enforcement agencies in the two countries will conduct parallel investigations, exchange information, and discuss which jurisdictions should bring specific cases. The parties have already identified overlapping cases and plan to carry out an operation in London in early October. It will be implemented together with private-sector partners.

This agreement is the first fully fledged international treaty aimed at foreign cryptocurrency scam centers. From September 2023 to December 2025, the U.S. Treasury identified transactions linked to them totaling $12.7 billion.
