\nCrypto scams have declined, but hackers remain resilient in bearish markets<\/br>
\n2023-01-20 22:19:48<\/br><\/p>\n

\n

When it comes<\/span> to crime, illicit activity is still abundant regardless of crypto volatility, according to a new Chainalysis report<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cCryptocurrency transaction volumes this year for both illicit and legitimate entities are tracking behind 2021 through July,\u201d the report stated. \u201cOverall, criminal activity appears to be more resilient in the face of price declines: Illicit volumes are down just 15% year over year, compared to 36% for legitimate volumes.\u201d<\/p>\n

But there\u2019s nuance in the apparent downturn in illicit activity \u2014 some subsectors of crypto-based crime have increased in 2022, while others declined.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe main drivers of declining illicit activity are: macroeconomic conditions, increased law enforcement wins and a general acceptance by consumers that cryptocurrency is not the anonymous source of payment that it once was considered to be,\u201d Kim Grauer, director of research at Chainalysis, said to TechCrunch.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
