Hong Kong Customs operation
The Hong Kong Customs' newest findings included a cryptocurrency exchange, a woman, and her brother, who was dealing with a number of payments from unknown sources and participating in money laundering activities.Acting upon their intelligence, the Hong Kong Customs raided the house of Yau Tong, and a 21-year old man followed by a 28-year old woman was arrested for their money laundering activities and "dealing with property known or reasonably believed to represent proceeds of an indictable offense."
"A further investigation revealed that the two arrested persons had opened personal accounts between May to November last year at various banks in Hong Kong," said the report.The siblings "engaged in suspected money laundering by dealing with money from unknown sources through bank transfers, cash deposits, and cryptocurrency."
Investigation is ongoing
The report claims that the investigation is still ongoing and that there are a number of things that the Hong Kong Customs are working on."The two arrested persons have been released on bail pending further investigation and the likelihood of further arrests is not ruled out," confirmed the report.The rise in the number of money laundering cases and crypto-related scams cannot be ignored. There are a number of countries around the world with similar incidents.
The siblings will be prosecuted under the Organized and Serious Crimes Ordinance (OSCO) by Hong Kong Customs which involves a fine of up to $5 million and a jail time of around 14 years.
As per a recent report, DeFi exploits have also been on the rise and regulations are needed to tackle money laundering and scam cases.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
