China's Supreme People's Procuratorate has published recommendations on handling cryptocurrency-related money laundering, as Chainalysis estimated that Chinese-language laundering networks processed $16.15 billion in 2025. According to NS3.AI, the guidance suggests treating the use of mixers, privacy coins, and certain anonymous wallet activity as evidence of laundering intent unless defendants can rebut the presumption.

The recommendations are described as non-binding and do not carry legal force. The article notes that the proposals would effectively shift part of the burden onto defendants to explain or counter inferences drawn from specific privacy-enhancing tools or behaviors.

The update comes alongside the Chainalysis estimate highlighting the scale of activity attributed to Chinese-language laundering networks in 2025.
