The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) announced sanctions against more than a dozen individuals and entities linked to two online networks associated with the Sinaloa Cartel in Mexico. One money laundering network is suspected of converting cash proceeds from selling fentanyl and other drugs into cryptocurrency on behalf of the cartel. OFAC stated that this network collected large amounts of cash across the United States and converted it into cryptocurrency, then transferred the funds back to the cartel leadership in Mexico. Additionally, Jesus Gonzalez Penuelas, a fugitive leader of a separate drug trafficking and money laundering organization, is also on the sanctions list. (TheBlock)
