Justice Department Seizes Over $560,000 in Crypto Donations to Hamas

The Justice Department seized over $560,000 in cryptocurrency donations to Hamas Al Qassam Brigades through three unsealed warrants dated March 25, June 25 and October 10, 2025.

Funds moved via encrypted group chats that directed supporters to fundraising websites and rotated multiple crypto addresses for collection.

Official statements

U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro stated that Hamas networks are not secure and crypto remains vulnerable to seizure.

Assistant Attorney General John A. Eisenberg said the actions deprive the group of resources used for recruitment and attacks, including domain takedowns such as AlQassam.ps.

What remains unknown

Exact per-warrant breakdown and final disposition of the seized assets remain undisclosed.
