China Develops AI to Track Dirty Bitcoin with Nearly 90% Accuracy
Researchers from China's national police academy have created an AI-powered system capable of identifying illicit Bitcoin transactions with 89.1% precision, according to local media.
How it works:
🟠The system combines a graph neural network, a memory module, and a large language model to analyze blockchain activity.
🟠It compares new transfers with historical money laundering patterns to spot evolving criminal techniques.
🟠Beyond flagging suspicious wallets, it generates a risk score, supporting evidence, and an explanation for each alert.
🟠Tested on the public Elliptic Bitcoin dataset, the model achieved 89.4% overall accuracy.
The system reflects China's growing push toward AI-powered policing, making blockchain investigations more automated, explainable, and harder for criminals to evade.
