The Justice Department has seized more than $560,000 in cryptocurrency donations intended for Hamas’s Al Qassam Brigades.
Court documents allege that a group chat claiming ties to Hamas used an encrypted messaging platform to direct supporters to a fundraising website and circulated different cryptocurrency addresses for donations, according to the Justice Department.
According to three cryptocurrency seizure warrants that have since been unsealed, investigators used information from multiple human sources to track and seize approximately $560,000 in cryptocurrency on March 25, June 25 and Oct. 10, 2025.
Officials also gained control of domains and servers, including AlQassam.ps, that the group used for recruitment and online appeals,
“My message to Hamas is clear: your networks are not secure, your crypto is vulnerable, and we will not stop until your ability to wage war is defeated,” said U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro for the District of Columbia.
“These seizures deprive Hamas of resources it relies on to recruit and radicalize individuals online and finance barbaric attacks like the one on October 7, 2023. We will continue to tighten the vise on Hamas’s capacity for terror by infiltrating its online networks, confiscating its cryptocurrency, and shutting down its websites,” said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg.
The FBI Albuquerque Field Office led the effort with support from counterterrorism and cyber units.
