The authorities asserted that Lorram was a co-leader of a clandestine cell network that utilized cryptocurrency as a means to steal money.

The Dark Side of Cryptocurrency

The digital asset market is continuing to experience growing popularity from all regions of the world, and as a result, the cryptocurrency realm is now becoming a shelter for wolves. These crooks are constantly on the lookout for opportunities to forcibly break the security of crypto networks.

Hackers have carried out heists on cryptocurrency platforms over the course of their history, making off with crypto assets worth billions of dollars that were stored in users' wallets. However, due to an increase in malware assaults on personal and institutional wallets, the dark side of cryptocurrencies is once again being brought to light, which undermines the legitimacy of the sector as a whole.

The thought that bitcoin is swiftly becoming the currency of thieves, which is a long cry from the principles that were behind its inception, is the most concerning part of this situation. In spite of efforts to put a halt to the operations of criminals, attackers are coming up with new methods to carry on, and users of crypto remain vulnerable to being targeted by them.
