Spain Seizes €400K in Crypto from Major Piracy Platform, Arrests Three Suspects

Enforcement Actions

Gate News message, April 23 — Spanish authorities in Almería dismantled one of the country’s largest Spanish-language piracy platforms and seized two crypto cold wallets containing approximately €400,000 (roughly $467,000) in assets. Three suspects were arrested in connection with the operation.

The illicit platform had been distributing pirated comics since 2014, generating revenue primarily through advertising. Over the past decade, the site accumulated more than €4 million in total earnings. The seized cold wallets were discovered hidden inside wall-mounted thermometers.

Authorities have not yet disclosed whether they have obtained access to the wallets’ private keys or funds.
