$467K In Crypto Seized As Spain Cracks Down On Illegal Piracy Platform

Spanish police seized €400,000 ($467,000) in cryptocurrency from two cold wallets hidden inside a wall thermometer during a raid in Almería. Three suspects were arrested in connection with the country’s largest illegal Spanish-language manga distribution platform, operational since 2014. The site generated over €4 million ($4.55 million) in ad revenue by offering pirated content. Authorities have not confirmed whether they can access the seized funds, as cold wallets require PINs or seed phrases. The case highlights challenges law enforcement face in handling crypto seizures, illustrated by custody failures in other countries like South Korea.
