While the defendants allegedly used other currencies, including the U.S. dollar, “they principally used bitcoin when purchasing servers, registering domains, and otherwise making payments in furtherance of hacking activity.”
The indictment explains:
“In addition to mining bitcoin, the Conspirators acquired bitcoin through a variety of means designed to obscure the origin of the funds.
This included purchasing bitcoin through exchanges, moving funds through other digital currencies, and using pre-paid cards.
The defendants allegedly used multiple “dedicated email accounts” to both track bitcoin transaction information and facilitate payments, the release added.
