UK National Crime Agency to Launch Specialized Crypto Team
The UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA) is set to form a new team with a remit to proactively investigate cryptocurrency crime, dubbed the National Cyber Crime Unit (NCCU) Crypto Cell. The initial team will be made up of five officers based within its existing NCCU.
NCA noted that the crime prevention body’s interest in stopping crypto crime “is not a new thing,” however, the formation of this new unit does “signal an increased focus” on policing crypto assets.the government body will look to support existing and new investigations where specialist cryptocurrency experience is needed and will take a “proactive lead” in identifying potential targets for further investigation.
