145 BidenCash domains and crypto funds seized in international operation: DoJ and partners dismantle large-scale market for stolen bank data.
On June 5, 2025, the US Department of Justice announced the seizure of cryptocurrency assets and more than 145 domains associated with the illegal site BidenCash — one of the largest markets for stolen bank cards on the darknet. Since its launch in March 2022, BidenCash has served more than 117,000 customers, selling more than 15 million payment cards and personal data, which brought in more than $ 17 million in revenue. Administrators charged a fee for each transaction. Millions of stolen cards were posted on the forum for free to promote the service. In addition to bank data, the platform also offered remote access accounts, SSH solutions, and server security verification tools.
BidenCash emerged after the closure of the legendary Joker’s Stash and quickly occupied a niche in the shadow market. According to CloudSEK, by 2023 the site offered not only banking data, but also hacking services, which posed a threat to businesses in the form of encryptors, data theft and mining. In 2023, 50% of the 2.1 million cards published belonged to American users. The operation to eliminate it was a joint effort of the FBI, the US Secret Service, the Dutch police, the Shadowserver Foundation and Searchlight Cyber.
