'Crypto Couple' to plead guilty for laundering billions in stolen bitcoin

The couple known as "Bitcoin Bonnie & Clyde" will plead guilty for laundering $4.5 billion in stolen bitcoin from the 2016 Bitfinex hack.
They were newly charged with an information document, signaling intent to plead guilty, after previously pleading not guilty.
The stolen bitcoin was worth $70 million in 2016 but has since inflated to around $3.6 billion.
Prosecutors are seeking asset forfeiture of around $3 billion from the couple.
If found guilty, the couple faces up to 25 years in prison for money laundering and conspiracy charges.
