According to Agence France-Presse and Le Parisien, French courts have approved the extradition of John Daghita, a suspect in his twenties with American nationality, back to the United States. U.S. authorities accuse him of embezzling approximately $46 million worth of cryptocurrency from a U.S. government-controlled custody wallet he signed a contract with, prior to leaving the U.S. at the end of February 2026. It has been disclosed that the suspect is the son of an executive at a private American security company that assists the U.S. government in managing seized cryptocurrencies. During the search, law enforcement officials found a box of U.S. dollars, high-end computer equipment, multiple mobile phones, and a handgun, and have fully recovered the stolen $46 million in cryptocurrency. His defense attorney stated that the suspect himself requested extradition, but the entire administrative extradition process could still take about 10 months to complete.
