According to Decrypt, Odaily reports that Florida prosecutors have seized approximately $1.5 million in cryptocurrency linked to a foreign suspect (Chinese citizen Tu Weizhi). The wallet contained AVAX, DOGE, PEPE, and SOL. The state attorney general's cyber fraud enforcement unit has obtained a court order to freeze assets under Tu Weizhi's name. Tu Weizhi is currently charged with money laundering, grand theft, and organized fraud.
Florida authorities said Tu Weizhi would be arrested if he attempted to enter the United States. Investigators noted the raid stemmed from an investigation that began in July 2024 when a resident of Orange County reported losing $47,421. The resident had transferred the money to what appeared to be an online investment project. The investigation ultimately linked the funds to a wallet controlled by Tu Weizhi.
According to a report by Cointelegraph, Greg Cipolaro, Global Head of Research at New York Digital Investment Group (NYDIG), stated that stock tokenization will not immediately bring significant benefits to the crypto market, but its benefits could increase if such assets are better integrated into blockchains. "The networks these assets support, such as Ethereum, will initially benefit very little, but these benefits will increase as their accessibility, interoperability, and composability improve," Cipolaro added. He further noted that the initial benefits will be reflected in transaction fees collected when using tokenized assets, while the blockchains hosting these assets will "enjoy an increasingly enhanced network effect" from storing them.
