An article by China’s procuratorial system suggests that the use of coin mixers and privacy coins should be regarded as an indication of intent to commit money laundering
Svmuu News: An article published in the theory section of *Procuratorial Daily*, the official newspaper of China’s Supreme People’s Procuratorate, proposes a framework for prosecuting money laundering involving cryptocurrencies. It recommends that courts presume criminal intent when suspects use coin mixers or privacy coins and fail to provide reasonable counterevidence, and that verifiable on-chain records and reports from blockchain analysis firms be admitted as evidence. The article also recommends establishing a national-level platform to hold and dispose of seized cryptocurrencies through compliant channels, such as targeted auctions. The article was written by two grassroots prosecutors from Hunan Province and a law professor from a university; it does not have legal binding force. The article states that Chinese prosecutors indicted more than 3,000 individuals for cryptocurrency money laundering in 2024. Data from Chainalysis shows that Chinese money-laundering networks processed approximately $16 billion in 2025, currently accounting for about one-fifth of the global total of cryptocurrency money laundering.
