Vladimir Kats, by his own admission, helped to create and operate an anonymous digital currency system that provided cybercriminals and others with the means to launder criminal proceeds on an unprecedented scale. As a co-founder and operator of Liberty Reserve, Vladimir Kats served as a global banker for criminals, giving them an anonymous, online forum to hide the proceeds of their illegal and dangerous activities. That help included giving agents the password to encrypted child pornography on his hard drive. U.S. District Judge Denise Cote said at Kats’s sentencing in Manhattan that she needed to balance his “extraordinarily important” cooperation with the government’s prosecution of Budovsky against the criminal activity that he had made his life’s work. Also on Friday, Cote sentenced Azzedine El Amine, who pleaded guilty in 2014 to conspiracy for his role as Kats’s and Budovsky’s deputy, to the time he’s already served. The judge ordered him released from custody. El Amine also cooperated with the government.
