#MSCI未排除数字资产财库企业纳入范围 Look at this case and you'll understand — that brother not only had a huge amount of BTC confiscated, but probably also hid other digital assets.

From 2014 to 2015, he obtained Cambodian nationality, then opened banks and got involved in real estate. His main business was actually online gambling, with telecom fraud only a small part. In the end, he was extradited.

This incident illustrates a reality:
**Small country passports + being overseas means you can't live freely anymore.**

If you have little money and clean methods, indeed no one pays attention. Trading cryptocurrencies domestically is also not illegal. The ones who really can't sleep well are those:
- with very large scale
- with unclear sources of funds
- relying on issuing tokens to cut leeks for a living

The source of confidence in the crypto world is changing. It used to be "whether you hide enough," now it's "whether it's worth it to catch you."

Many people are still dreaming —
changing passports, moving overseas, and linking assets online, thinking they can forever escape regulation.

But when major powers start truly cooperating and coordinating, small country passports can only serve as travel documents. They are not that magical.

The biggest risk in the crypto world, honestly, has never been price fluctuations. It’s that you think the rules don’t apply to you.

Now it's really over. Small country passports can't save anyone. It's already 2024, and you're still dreaming about this.

Passport stuff is really useless now, big brothers are all checking account transactions.

Basically, it's the path you choose yourself, and no one else to blame. True experts should have understood these game rules long ago.

Really, now there's nowhere to hide. Small country passports have become worthless.

Passports, on-chain, overseas hide-and-seek—at the end of the day, it's just self-deception. When big countries coordinate, small countries become useless.

Passports are no longer useful. The big shots should be caught or be caught.

According to research, the cost function of cross-border compliance enforcement has undergone a qualitative change — from the previous high-cost, low-reward model, to a now evolved low-cost, high-reward collaborative recovery system. Notably, the asset allocation strategy of this case figure precisely validates a classic regulatory evasion paradox: the larger the size, the harder to hide, and instead becomes the "optimal hunting target" in the priority ranking of various countries. From a technical perspective, when the immutability of on-chain assets combines with big data tracking capabilities, the concealment advantage of small country passport protection systems has already been shattered. Overall, the shift in confidence within the crypto community — from evasion logic to cost assessment — is the true paradigm shift.

No one has believed in passports for a long time; this collaboration still comes too late.
