Norway arrests 28 in global dark web crackdown using new Monero tracing tech

Norway's Kripos arrested 28 suspects across seven countries in June 2026 for using Monero to pay for child abuse content on the dark web. This operation, supported by Europol, seized over 460 illegal items and rescued three children. Kripos developed new methods in 2025 to trace Monero transactions, challenging the belief that privacy coins are untraceable. More arrests are expected as investigations continue, highlighting increased law enforcement capabilities against illicit crypto use.
