@@28russ Your Secret Recovery Phrase (or seed phrase) is the backup of all the private keys stored in a given crypto wallet. It allows you to recover all of your blockchain addresses, even without the original crypto wallet. This 12-24 word phrase must be kept secure. Your seed phrase is the most sensitive piece of data: You must write it down correctly, otherwise you may lose access to your wallet. You should also not enter the seedphrase on computer that is non-secure. As an example hackers can keylog your computer and if you enter the seedphrase on a compromised computer you're giving the hacker acess to the funds indirectly. That being said, the people who stored their "btc" on a harddrive that you might have read about actually stored the seedphrase on it, without secondary backup. example; write it down on a paper and put that shit in a safe. This is also known as a paperwallet. Heck, if you wanted to you could split the whole password into x-amount of papers stored different places which you only have acess to.
It's crazy how much criminals can get away with simply because finances and technology continue to evolve, and law enforcement is still struggling to catch up.

10:12 Uhm now that makes me question some things, back in 2015 my parents wanted to buy a house via a loan, it was discussed that we would be the ones buying it but on the next day we were informed that another individual bought off the house with a briefcase filled with money, the greedy ladies told us that at least 😒, I believe the house was worth around 280k euros which would equal in today’s worth to be around 358k euros (Pretty cheap considering we live inside a city and in Germany a tiny house nowadays costs around 1 million euros and going off my father’s owned flats, a one room flat of his is worth around 250k euros today)
Funny to spot one's hometown in such a Video! At 0:40 in the bottom left you can see the Porta Nigra in Trier, Germany! I used to take the bus from the bus stop in the background after school 😂
I think they must be living in a dream. If I'd stolen that much money, I'd be content with living modestly, without needing to work. Although, it seems like that kind of crime is very nearly impossible to get away with, let alone practically profit by. In the short term, you can buy lots of stuff. In the long term, you get three meals and a cozy cell. Or you're on the run with nothing. It doesn't sound like a good time to me.
The mistake lies in them not being more patient and conscientious with their spending. It may take a ton of small transactions, but if you buy & resell enough things then you create both a legitimate, legal paper trail for your money as well as flying it under the radar of authorities. Once you have enough saved & a long enough paper trail to buy a cash based business without raising red flags, you can start really laundering the gains.
If I were in possession of such a mass wealth of dirty money, I'd start by cashing out as much as I could safely into cash. Then I'd make several cash purchases under $10,000. Maybe, say, buying & flipping used cars. Flip those cars & you've officially both laundered some of your money as well as creating that much needed paper trail. At this rate now, you can start utilizing an actual bank account if you want. Once you have a good standing with the bank & a realistic progression of increase in your income, you can apply for loans to legitimately buy the bigger ticket items without arousing suspicion (ideally, business loans for those much-desired cash businesses). Then you just make the monthly payments, per usual, & more of your dirty money gets laundered as well as opening up more legitimate income streams. It's hard to not be greedy & want to spend with that much money, but with patience & diligence one could really build themselves a generous wealth; the kind of wealth that would afford someone the ability to pay for big money laundering services.
One thing ive learned through kira. Is that bitcoin is valuable only when sold. And onlly when you have the intention of scamming (marking up) the people you sell it to.

Genuinely wondering what the benefits of Bitcoin are. If it’s anonymity, that’s clearly not the case since the authorities seem to be able to easily track it.
For people who abide by laws, it's a decentralized & readily portable currency. Given that the crypto market runs parallel but independent of modern centralized banks that utilize fiat currencies, it should theoretically function as somewhat of an insurance against inflation. In essence, it's like being able to carry a precious metal stockpile in your pocket; can be exchanged into local currency in most modern countries without having to necessarily worry as far as exchange rates are concerned.

I like this channel a lot so I’m not trying to be overcritical or anything. I’ll probably watch the video eventually, along with all the others he releases. Just throwing in my two cents.
What surprises me with that bitcoin seized is that she didn't have a wallet backup or/and funnel that bitcoin to another wallet for quite some time before authorities discovered what they have. Bitcoin seizing usually only works if authorities can move that to another wallet immediately or keep perpetrator arrested so they cannot move it. You can have multiple password protected copies of the wallet stored in multiple places, and authorities won't be able to do anything with them without a password. You on other hand can move that bitcoin to another wallet from any location with internet access.
To me she's a genius...not a criminal...all of you condemning her simply lack the wit to pull this out and are deep down jealous and envious. Whether you realize it or not...

unexpected burst of energy sent me X D
10:12 Uhm now that makes me question some things, back in 2015 my parents wanted to buy a house via a loan, it was discussed that we would be the ones buying it but on the next day we were informed that another individual bought off the house with a briefcase filled with money, the greedy ladies told us that at least 😒, I believe the house was worth around 280k euros which would equal in today’s worth to be around 358k euros
(Pretty cheap considering we live inside a city and in Germany a tiny house nowadays costs around 1 million euros and going off my father’s owned flats, a one room flat of his is worth around 250k euros today)
The return of KIRA!
Funny to spot one's hometown in such a Video! At 0:40 in the bottom left you can see the Porta Nigra in Trier, Germany! I used to take the bus from the bus stop in the background after school 😂
great channel
I think they must be living in a dream. If I'd stolen that much money, I'd be content with living modestly, without needing to work. Although, it seems like that kind of crime is very nearly impossible to get away with, let alone practically profit by. In the short term, you can buy lots of stuff. In the long term, you get three meals and a cozy cell. Or you're on the run with nothing. It doesn't sound like a good time to me.
The mistake lies in them not being more patient and conscientious with their spending. It may take a ton of small transactions, but if you buy & resell enough things then you create both a legitimate, legal paper trail for your money as well as flying it under the radar of authorities. Once you have enough saved & a long enough paper trail to buy a cash based business without raising red flags, you can start really laundering the gains.
If I were in possession of such a mass wealth of dirty money, I'd start by cashing out as much as I could safely into cash. Then I'd make several cash purchases under $10,000. Maybe, say, buying & flipping used cars. Flip those cars & you've officially both laundered some of your money as well as creating that much needed paper trail. At this rate now, you can start utilizing an actual bank account if you want. Once you have a good standing with the bank & a realistic progression of increase in your income, you can apply for loans to legitimately buy the bigger ticket items without arousing suspicion (ideally, business loans for those much-desired cash businesses). Then you just make the monthly payments, per usual, & more of your dirty money gets laundered as well as opening up more legitimate income streams. It's hard to not be greedy & want to spend with that much money, but with patience & diligence one could really build themselves a generous wealth; the kind of wealth that would afford someone the ability to pay for big money laundering services.
The lesson we all learned today is do not cheat people better than the government!
Love when I sit down with food and see a new KiraTV video
She looks like Griselda Blanco.
I've never liked the name Griselda.
_"Gris" means pig in Swedish....._
@@NickanM That would fit both of them.
@@NickanMwhat’s wrong with pigs?
Great video thanks for sharing 👍
New video, omg let me prepare food to watch this
Just ate my lunch to this video😅
There is no such thing as 'safely stored on a black laptop' or any device. its only the keys....
One thing ive learned through kira. Is that bitcoin is valuable only when sold. And onlly when you have the intention of scamming (marking up) the people you sell it to.
Can't you buy things with the bitcoin itself ?
Cracking vid. Have you ever considered applying your investigation & presentation talents to any of the funs things from last century's early internet days? Rob Morris crashing the internet, the LoD vs MoD Hacker 'War', Operation Sundevil & the E911 debacle (The Hacker Crackdown), Cliff Stoll vs the West German hackers working for the KGB (there's a gruesome conclusion for 1 actor in that) or things of that ilk? Would love to see your take on those.
Maybe one day
Some interesting stories in there
If we're talking about theft in China, please do a video regarding Ren Xiaofeng please @@KiraTV1
Looks like she invested most of it in buffets.
Warren Buffet? Not a bad move, ngl
LULZ!
Great work again bro
Great video
Did that one sight that blends the coins not exist yet. It's something like Bitcoin tornado or something idk. Either way it makes it hard as hell to track.
Been too long!!!
Great video! The only part that is not true is the fact that the government has access to the 61,000 BTC. Those Bitcoin can be still be accessed by Qian without the laptop, she just needs the private keys or seed phrases, to which I'm sure she has it stored somewhere safe.
Her picture scares me
As a car8bbean native, seeing her passport saying that she's from St kitts is so fucking laughable lolol
(mean girls voice) ohmigod, you can't just ask people why they're asian
I was wondering about that; is it common for criminals to get carribean paperwork cuz its easy to bribe officials to make legit documents for u? Or what
Believe it or not their are thousands of ethnic Asians that are born in the Caribbean every year. So having a passport from there is not unusual.
@Algimantaz with the right amount of money they're caribbean islands who allows you to buy passports and become a citizen for around 40 K usd, Dominica, Guyana, Antigua, and barbados. For sure here in barbados you can so easily get it especially if u come from UK, USA, Australia.
Well south americans have asian features too, like epiphantic folds
Crime --- tempting........ but it's just not worth it.
Great content -- as always 💯
Sounds exhausting to me.
@@DeltaCodeGamesit sounds exhausting because they make it exhausting. after they succeeded they couldve just bought a midrange crib somewhere out in the country and lived peacefully for the rest of their lives. instead they bought a 28 million dollar mansion aka shooting a flare for every crypto cop in sight
So she had never heard of bitcoin mixers.
you still have to turn the funny money into real money
But isn't this bitcoin a real value bitcoin? If it not real at all, Britain wouldn't be confiscating the bircoin worth billions of dollars while jailing the accomplice woman. I really don't understand this. In fact, my friend has bought some bitcoin and trying to get me to do the same.
@@sootuckchoong7077bro can you asked the question a little more clear
@@toomanyaccounts she had plenty of options. Mixing and converting to other crypto coins. She could've purchased other digital items. I've never laundered any money in my life. But I definitely could've done better. I definitely wouldn't have sent someone that earned next to nothing to try and buy one of the most expensive houses in the UK.
@@NeoSpacian1237 I want to know if bitcoin is real or not. And also this mastermind, is she making real or false bitcoin. If she make false bitcoin, then why the govt want to confiscate it and say its worth $billions?
Anyone know where that greggs is I recognise it. I live in Leeds myself
Maybe rhounday
Fascinating case!
so crazy
nice video !
I'm glad my experience getting duped was for free in-game currency in social mmo's in the 2010's and not... this
Imagine a mastermind thief that steals 5 billions. Now look at the thumbnail.
Honestly she looks like the Asian woman equivalent of the Portland "have you seen this man in your dreams?" poster guy
Hmm, those text messages and searches, you've already told us her employer had a track record of using employees digital ID and accounts to to do things, just saying.
Contact with her boss after she'd left and she claimed she hadn't is something else mind.
I love these long video vlogs
7:33. 500 pounds a month said, 500 pounds a week on the screen. (otherwise amazing video as always!)
not gonna lie, thought this said "Cinema's Most Wanted Thief" and was like "yeahhhh stick it to those hollywood jerks!!!11"
Your back!
Should be ‘You’re’ but…
Ah, the illiterates with their "your" when they mean "you're"...
You'd think in the year 2024 they'd have learned by now!
1 minute! Yessssss!!!
Thanks Kira! ❤😊
Minimum wage = Minimum effort?? Tf
Google and texts always do them in. 😂😂😂
Huh? And our government is saying we're skint!?
I’ll give it to her, she’s the Queen.
She hid the money in her double chin
I think i saw her at the massage parlor! Just kidding. I couldn't pick her out of a lineup.
As long as she's only using one person to help her launder her bitcoin she's going to be out there for a quite a long time, imo
This is why communism was embraced in China. Culturally, there does not seem to be elements that mitigate greed in that country. I've come face to face with it, and it is astounding.
Genuinely wondering what the benefits of Bitcoin are. If it’s anonymity, that’s clearly not the case since the authorities seem to be able to easily track it.
For people who abide by laws, it's a decentralized & readily portable currency. Given that the crypto market runs parallel but independent of modern centralized banks that utilize fiat currencies, it should theoretically function as somewhat of an insurance against inflation. In essence, it's like being able to carry a precious metal stockpile in your pocket; can be exchanged into local currency in most modern countries without having to necessarily worry as far as exchange rates are concerned.
@@smokeybowls187 But isn’t the value of bitcoin volatile and changes often? Not to mention one day your exchange could be hacked and you lose everything.
@@evaboeglin5690
1. anonymity is not thoughtfully designed in bitcoin compared to monero.
2. the value is volatile because you can't really buy things with bitcoin since the devs chose to make it deflationary. hard cap at 21mil amount of btc.
3. dont use exchange.
Is the full recap at the beginning good for retention or something? Makes me wanna leave the video after just a minute has played because I already know how it’s gonna end…
Does the story of point A to point B not intrigue you enough to want to know all the details instead of just the bullet points?
@@smokeybowls187 Curiosity might prevail in some cases, but personally I’d be way more curious about how the story plays out if I didn’t know the ending. All I’m saying is the recap at the beginning hurt my desire to watch this video rather than helped it, which I did end up skipping in the end.
I like this channel a lot so I’m not trying to be overcritical or anything. I’ll probably watch the video eventually, along with all the others he releases. Just throwing in my two cents.
What surprises me with that bitcoin seized is that she didn't have a wallet backup or/and funnel that bitcoin to another wallet for quite some time before authorities discovered what they have. Bitcoin seizing usually only works if authorities can move that to another wallet immediately or keep perpetrator arrested so they cannot move it. You can have multiple password protected copies of the wallet stored in multiple places, and authorities won't be able to do anything with them without a password. You on other hand can move that bitcoin to another wallet from any location with internet access.
To me she's a genius...not a criminal...all of you condemning her simply lack the wit to pull this out and are deep down jealous and envious. Whether you realize it or not...
I feel another banger coming on.
I hope they both get their bitcoin back
Her face scares me. It's like one of those hopping vampires in chinese movies.
Most Chinese criminals on the run are in the US or UK or Australia. US/UK/Australia love financial criminals.
She is smart
Great story, well told.
SHE SHOULD GET A JOB IN CONGRESS, PLENTY OF OPENINGS, SHE'LL FIT PERFECT EITHER DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN.NO PROBLEM.
What happens to the Bitcoin once the case is over?
