Taiwan indicts 30 over $600M crypto operation using Tether for illegal yuan conversions

Taiwan prosecutors indicted 30 people linked to a cross-border crypto operation that processed 20.128 billion New Taiwan dollars (about $600 million) in Tether (USDT) transactions. The operation, run by a marketing company, used platforms NOW PAY and X PAY to convert yuan to USDT for merchants and brokers, generating NT$315 million in profit over nine months. The group disguised transactions through fake NFT and game websites to evade Chinese financial regulations. Prosecutors charged them with unregistered virtual-asset services and money laundering, conducting multiple searches and seizing assets, including detaining the company executive without visitation rights.

The Taiwan prosecutors' indictment of 30 individuals over a USDT network involving NT$20.1 billion provides context on cryptocurrency activity. For readers following crypto markets, here is Pluang's snapshot as of Sep 24, 2026 16:21 WIB: out of 50 major cryptocurrencies, only 8 rose while 41 fell.
