The Qingdao procuratorate clarifies the property nature of virtual currency in a case involving the theft of 107 bitcoins

According to Shandong Legal News, a Bitcoin theft case prosecuted by the Li Cang District Prosecutor's Office in Qingdao has been sentenced. The defendant, Zhang, was sentenced to 10 years and 9 months in prison for theft and fined 100,000 yuan.In the early hours of a certain day in 2024, the virtual currency wallet of the victim, Feng, was quietly accessed, and 107 Bitcoins were transferred, equivalent to over 22.54 million yuan at the market price on that day. It was found that Feng had entrusted an acquaintance, Zhang, to assist with the operation. During the process of registering the wallet on behalf of Feng, Zhang obtained the mnemonic phrase, and after multiple attempts in the early morning, he cracked the wallet and transferred the Bitcoins. After being apprehended, Zhang claimed that his actions were a "protective takeover" to prevent the Bitcoins from being stolen by others. The prosecution traced the funds and found that the stolen Bitcoins were transferred multiple times and exchanged for over 660,000 yuan, exposing his lies.The prosecution determined that Bitcoin has economic value and exclusive control, meeting the core characteristics of "property" in criminal law, and can be the object of theft. The actual proceeds from the sale of the stolen Bitcoins, amounting to over 660,000 yuan, were used as the basis for the theft amount. After the defendant appealed, in November 2025, the Qingdao Intermediate People's Court ruled to dismiss the appeal and upheld the original sentence. This case is a typical example of Qingdao's legal punishment of crimes in the virtual currency field, clearly conveying the judicial stance: activities related to virtual currency must be conducted within the legal framework, and stealing others' virtual property also constitutes a crime.

A man in Qingdao, China, was sentenced to 10 years and 9 months for stealing 107 BTC while "helping an acquaintance register a wallet."

Recently, the People's Procuratorate of Licang District, Qingdao City, Shandong Province, China, handled a Bitcoin theft case. The defendant, Zhang, obtained the mnemonic phrase while assisting an acquaintance in registering a virtual currency wallet, and later transferred 107 BTC in multiple transactions, equivalent to over 50 million yuan at current market prices. Zhang argued that his actions were a "protective takeover," but the prosecution found that he transferred the stolen BTC through multiple trading platforms and exchanged it for over 660,000 yuan. The Licang District Court sentenced Zhang to 10 years and 9 months in prison for theft and imposed a fine of 100,000 yuan; the second instance upheld the original judgment.Reports indicate that the prosecutor handling the case strictly adhered to laws and judicial policies, and after in-depth analysis, concluded that although China's regulatory policies deny the legal currency status of virtual currencies, they do not negate their property attributes, nor do they prohibit citizens from legally holding and circulating them. Bitcoin requires investment in computing power, funds, and other costs to acquire, which gives it economic value; rights holders can achieve exclusive control and management through private keys and mnemonic phrases, aligning with the core characteristics of "property" in criminal law, making it a target for theft. In determining the amount, since virtual currencies have no official pricing, the Licang District Procuratorate discarded market price estimates and used the actual proceeds from the crime of over 660,000 yuan as the amount for theft, ensuring accurate conviction, appropriate sentencing, and unity of guilt and punishment.

A partner at a law firm in Chongqing has gone missing, possibly involved in a 210 million yuan stablecoin bribery and money laundering case

Multiple independent sources have confirmed to Caixin that the founding partner and director of a law firm in Chongqing has recently been taken away by relevant authorities. This lawyer is Peng Jing, the founding partner and director of Chongqing Jingsheng Law Firm. There is speculation that she has numerous connections with the officials who have recently fallen from grace.According to analysts, lawyers from law firms are usually not taken away by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, "but Peng Jing has a very large network, and her case involves too many people." On March 20, 2026, Chongqing Mayor Hu Henghua was reported to be under investigation, and on April 17, Luo Lin, a member of the Chongqing Municipal Committee and secretary of the Liangjiang New Area Committee, was also announced to have fallen. Reports from the local political and business circles in Chongqing suggest that the downfall of Hu Henghua and Luo Lin is related to bribery and money laundering through stablecoins, and "Peng Jing may be a key figure, helping others launder money under the guise of collecting legal fees." Sources indicate that in the Hu Henghua case, Lin Kechuang, the son-in-law of Lin Xiucheng, gave Hu Henghua 30.8 million USDT (approximately 210 million yuan, of which 10 million was for exchange fees). After Hu Henghua was investigated, the cold wallet was controlled, and authorities traced the funds from six other cold wallets held by Lin Kechuang; among them, a transfer of 15.5 million USDT that occurred simultaneously with Hu Henghua's was claimed by Lin Kechuang to have been sent to Luo Lin. Luo Lin was taken away by relevant authorities on April 14, 2026, and his home was searched on the evening of April 15, but this cold wallet was not found. Subsequently, authorities found Luo Lin's cold wallet at a third party's home.
