The key discussion points are summarized as follows:The determination of "subjective awareness" in money laundering crimes involving virtual currency should comprehensively assess the subjective awareness in money laundering crimes involving virtual currency to avoid unjust attribution.In identifying the behavior types and criteria for the completion of money laundering crimes involving virtual currency, the following aspects are crucial: firstly, accurately grasping the essence of the crime of "disguising or concealing the proceeds of crime and the sources and nature of such proceeds"; secondly, the behavior of disguising or concealing the proceeds of crime and their benefits as stipulated in the constituent elements of money laundering crimes, constitutes the completion of the crime; thirdly, strictly cracking down on money laundering crimes in accordance with the law to resolutely safeguard national financial security.In determining the crime of illegally operating virtual currency, if the behavior does not exhibit characteristics of operational activities and only involves personal holding or trading of cryptocurrency, it is generally not considered an illegal operation crime. However, if the individual knowingly assists others in illegal trading or disguised foreign exchange trading by exchanging virtual currency, and the circumstances are severe, they should be deemed an accomplice to the crime of illegal operation.
