TRON DAO Participates in Europol’s 9th Global Conference on Criminal Finances and Cryptoassets

Geneva, Switzerland, October 28, 2025 – TRON DAO, the community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), participated in the 9th Global Conference on Criminal Finances and Cryptoassets, held on October 28-29, 2025, at the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) headquarters in Vienna, Austria.

The conference, jointly organized by Europol, UNODC and the Basel Institute on Governance, brought together industry leaders from across sectors to advance global efforts to counter criminal use of crypto. Sessions explored emerging typologies such as sanctions evasion, narcotics trafficking, professional money laundering, and scam centers, alongside policy developments, investigative tools, and cross-sector collaboration frameworks.

On day one, John Hurston, General Counsel, U.S. of TRON DAO, joined the panel “Public-Private Collaboration in Cryptoasset Seizure.” The session featured an in-depth examination of the T3 Financial Crime Unit (T3 FCU) — a joint initiative by TRON, Tether, and TRM Labs aimed at combating illicit activity associated with crime on the blockchain. The session was moderated by Alejandro Pérez, Cryptocurrency Specialist at Europol, and other panelists included Leonardo Real, Chief Compliance Officer at Tether, and Dr. Bruno Requião da Cunha, Global Investigator at TRM Labs. The discussion explored the T3 FCU model’s effectiveness, scalability, and its potential to strengthen global public-private collaborations.

Since its inception in September 2024, T3 FCU has worked closely with law enforcement agencies worldwide to identify and disrupt criminal networks. The unit has analyzed millions of transactions across five continents, monitoring over $3 billion USD in total volume. This comprehensive monitoring capability enables T3 FCU to work across borders, identifying and disrupting criminal operations in real-time, making it an invaluable resource for law enforcement agencies worldwide.

TRON DAO’s participation in the 9th Global Conference on Criminal Finances and Cryptoassets reaffirmed its commitment to fostering international cooperation with law enforcement and regulatory authorities to enhance transparency, accountability, and trust across the global digital asset ecosystem.
