Crypto World News: The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) under the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) released data showing that in 2025, IC3 received over 13,400 complaints involving cryptocurrency self-service terminals, with related losses exceeding $388 million. The number of complaints increased by 23% year-over-year, and the losses increased by 58% year-over-year. More than half of the complaints involved individuals over 50 years old, with related losses exceeding $302 million.
