比推消息，英国前国家犯罪署（NCA）官员因在丝绸之路 2.0 调查中窃取 50 枚比特币被判入狱。丝绸之路 2.0 是原始丝绸之路的后续版本，在 2013 年 10 月 FBI 关闭原始丝绸之路并逮捕其创始人 Ross Ulbricht 后一个月上线，在运行一年后被 FBI 关闭。曾参与调查的 NCA 行动官员 Paul Chowles 在执法行动中负责提取和分析丝绸之路 2.0 联合创始人的设备数据，当时查获 97 枚比特币中的 50 枚于 2017 年 5 月被转移，这些比特币随后通过加密货币混币服务 Bitcoin Fog 进行处理，显然是为了掩盖其来源。Paul Chowles 目前已对盗窃、转移犯罪财产和隐瞒犯罪财产的指控表示认罪并被判处五年以上监禁，英国皇家检控署计算他从中非法获利约 613,150 英镑（821,345 美元）。
