عملة البيتكوين و جريمة تمويل الإرهاب الدولي

Abstract

"Cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin introduced in 2008, have enabled faster digital transactions while ensuring confidentiality and decentralization. However, these advantages have been exploited for illegal purposes, particularly in financing terrorism by concealing the sources of funds and user identities. These currencies pose a challenge to national security due to their legal, security, and economic implications, which requires the development of appropriate legislation, effective control mechanisms, and the strengthening of the capabilities of relevant authorities. This study highlights this growing threat and emphasizes the need for clear legal and regulatory frameworks to combat the illicit financing of terrorism through cryptocurrencies."
