PANews reported on November 28th that China News Weekly published an article titled "Can the 40 Billion Yuan Worth of Bitcoins Taken Away by Qian Zhimin Be Returned to China?", which pointed out that Qian Zhimin, the main culprit in a money laundering case involving 60,000 Bitcoins, purchased a total of 194,951 Bitcoins, exceeding the 61,000 Bitcoins seized by the police. However, the court did not disclose the situation of the remaining 120,000+ Bitcoins, meaning that there is a high probability that Qian Zhimin's assets still contain Bitcoins that have not yet been discovered or confiscated. London Metropolitan Police detective Joe Lane revealed that Qian Zhimin claimed that the password to a wallet containing 20,000 Bitcoins was "lost." According to the latest market price, these "lost" Bitcoins alone are worth approximately 12.5 billion yuan.PANews reported on November 28th that China News Weekly published an article titled "Can the 40 Billion Yuan Worth of Bitcoins Taken Away by Qian Zhimin Be Returned to China?", which pointed out that Qian Zhimin, the main culprit in a money laundering case involving 60,000 Bitcoins, purchased a total of 194,951 Bitcoins, exceeding the 61,000 Bitcoins seized by the police.
