Illicit Cryptocurrency Activity Surges to Five-Year High in 2025
- Surge in Illicit Activity: TRM Labs reports that illicit crypto wallets received $158 billion in 2025, marking a nearly 145% increase from $64.5 billion in 2024, the highest level in five years, indicating a strong rebound in sanctions evasion networks.
- Key Drivers Identified: This surge was primarily driven by Russia-linked sanctions evasion networks, particularly the A7A5 stablecoin, which processed over $72 billion in total volume during the year, highlighting increased nation-state reliance on crypto infrastructure.
- Declining Market Share: Despite the record-high absolute volume, illicit transactions accounted for only 1.2% of total on-chain volume in 2025, down from 1.3% in 2024, reflecting the broader crypto market's expansion and enhanced regulatory scrutiny.
- Hack-Related Losses: Losses related to hacks totaled $2.87 billion in 2025, with the number of incidents declining year-over-year; however, the Bybit breach alone accounted for 51% of total losses at $1.46 billion, underscoring security challenges facing the crypto industry.
