The DEA has announced the seizure of more than $10 million in cryptocurrency associated with the Sinaloa cartel, part of a nationwide crackdown that led to the interception of 44 million fentanyl pills and other dangerous substances. Ovidio Guzman Lopez, son of 'El Chapo', pleaded guilty to drug trafficking, and the Trump administration has imposed additional sanctions against the group. These actions highlight the use of cryptocurrencies by cartels to manage their profits.
