On November 8th, according to Guangming.com, the Ministry of State Security announced a major case involving virtual currency investment and national security. A secret-related government official was sentenced to life imprisonment for investing in virtual currency at a loss and selling state secrets. Wang Moumou was originally a government official of a secret-related unit. He was a good young man in the hearts of the unit and his family. Due to his heavy losses in virtual currency investment, he posted "asking for a part-time job" on online forums and revealed his identity as a government official. This behavior attracted the attention of foreign spy intelligence agencies. They used high compensation as bait to successfully turn against Wang Moumou. The investigation by the national security organs revealed that Wang provided top-secret and secret state secrets to foreign forces. He obtained more than 1 million yuan in espionage funds through virtual currency recharge and transaction realization. In the end, Wang was sentenced to life imprisonment by the people's court for committing espionage and deprived of lifelong political rights.
