Addressing the Criminal Use of Cryptocurrency in Transnational Organized Crime

About the committee

Cryptocurrency has revolutionized global finance, but it has also become a powerful tool for transnational criminal organizations. From ransomware payments and dark web marketplaces to money laundering, drug trafficking, terrorist financing, and human trafficking, digital assets increasingly enable criminals to move illicit funds beyond traditional financial oversight. In this committee, delegates will investigate the evolving relationship between cryptocurrency and organized crime while balancing innovation, financial privacy, national sovereignty, and international security. Delegates must work together to strengthen global cooperation, improve financial intelligence, enhance blockchain investigations, and develop effective regulatory frameworks capable of disrupting criminal financial networks without hindering legitimate technological advancement.
