Coming up on 3 weeks since Telegram-based black market Xinbi Guarantee, which has done $21 *billion* in sales, was sanctioned by the UK gov for enabling crypto scamming and human trafficking. Yet Telegram, which could ban Xinbi at any time, is still hosting it.

Crypto tracing firm Elliptic found recent posts on Xinbi Guarantee selling handcuffs and tasers for human traffickers, as well as apparent teen sex trafficking. Elliptic also found Xinbi has done $500 million more in sales in the weeks *just since the sanctions were announced.*
