Prosecutors say he also converted crypto into cash and made structured cash deposits \u2014 breaking large sums into smaller ones to avoid scrutiny by banking authorities.<\/p>\n<p>Federal agents pieced together the money trail using blockchain analysis, eventually identifying cryptocurrency wallets containing Ethereum (ETH), USD Tether (USDT), and USD Coin linked to Antropenko. They linked Binance accounts in Antropenko\u2019s name to the laundering scheme.<\/p>\n<p>The FBI Dallas and Norfolk Field Offices and the Virtual Assets Unit are investigating Antropenko\u2019s ransomware activity. Since 2020, the Justice Department\u2019s Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section (CCIPS) said it had secured over 180 cybercriminals and obtained court orders for the return of over $350 million in victim funds.<\/p>\n<p>According to officials, the assets recovered from Antropenko will be added to the government\u2019s digital asset reserve, a system launched by executive order in March 2025. The reserve is designed to handle cryptocurrency collected through criminal forfeiture, giving federal authorities a structured way to properly track and manage digital assets linked to crime while cases move through the courts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCCIPS and its partners have also disrupted multiple ransomware groups, preventing victims from having to pay over $200 million in ransom payments,\u201d the DOJ added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Zeppelin Ransomware<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Zeppelin ransomware first appeared in late 2019 as a Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) derived from the VegaLocker\/Buran ransomware family, with a particular focus on healthcare and IT firms. While the group resurfaced with new versions in 2021, its operations shut down by November 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Security researchers later disclosed they had obtained access to a master decryption key as early as 2020, which quietly helped many victims recover data their files for free. In January 2024, the ransomware\u2019s source code had reportedly been sold on a hacking forum for just $500, signifying its decline and commoditization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) on Wednesday unsealed six federal warrants authorizing the seizure of more than $2.8 million in cryptocurrency, along with $70,000 in cash and a luxury vehicle, from a man accused of running the notorious and now-defunct Zeppelin ransomware scheme.
