How Stolen Bitcoin Is Cashed Out: The Evolution and Strategies of Cryptocurrency Money Laundering
Cryptocurrency criminals typically follow a three-stage money laundering model—placement, layering, and integration—to cash out illicitly obtained Bitcoin.

As of 2026, cross-chain bridges have replaced mixers as the primary money laundering tool, combined with chain hopping, DeFi platforms, no/weak KYC exchanges, and darknet services, forming a typical 45-day laundering cycle. Law enforcement agencies and blockchain analytics companies are continuously tracking and combating these activities, but money laundering methods are becoming increasingly sophisticated, posing a severe challenge to global regulation.
