Bishkek, Kyrgyz Republic — September 17, 2025
Four Dragons announces the filing of defamation claims against outlets that disseminated false narratives about the company and individuals connected to ongoing investigations. In parallel, the company is launching an independent, triple-blind blockchain forensics program and has formally invited the State Committee for National Security of the Kyrgyz Republic (SCNS/GKNB) to centrally coordinate a regulatory-grade, multi-jurisdictional review focused on AML/CFT risks surrounding the 841,000 USDT theft and connected flows.
Following the death in custody of the accused “super-hacker” Marat Zaripov — which Four Dragons alleges was preceded by two weeks of torture — the company has moved every material claim into the realm of formal due process and independent verification.

What’s New
● Legal action on misinformation. Four Dragons has filed defamation actions based on identified falsehoods and anonymous “plants.” We welcome full court scrutiny in the Kyrgyz Republic and internationally.● National-security lens. Given the scale of risk, cross-border routing, and indications of external influence, Four Dragons has proposed that SCNS (GKNB) act as central coordinator for a multi-agency, MLAT-enabled process.● Triple-blind crypto forensics. Three independent analytic stacks (no shared tooling, no cross-signal) will run a parallel trace with a single consolidated conclusion.● Preliminary AML assessment (hypothesis). According to initial analysis made by Goran Safar. ex-Regional Manager - GCC & CIS region at Chainalysis and now Head of Sales of Global Ledger in UAE, conducted using Global Ledger software, associated "dirty" funds related to the laundering of 841,000 USDT stolen from us via the Whitebit platform may reach $11.7 billion. This is a hypothesis subject to confirmation or dismissal through independent expertise and procedural procedures.

What Four Dragons Has Already Done
● 1. Defamation claims filed. Courts adjudicate facts — not rumor, pressure, or innuendo.● 2. Jurisdiction & coordination. Materials and our position were submitted to SCNS/GKNB; filings also made in an EU jurisdiction.● 3. Independent audit track. “Three engines → one finding”: trace, cluster, and quantify suspected illicit-finance companion flows.● 4. Law-enforcement-ready evidence. Primary datasets, graph files, timelines, SHA-256 hash manifests, and a documented chain-of-custody are prepared for competent authorities.

Why the National-Security Frame (and why SCNS/GKNB)
● Scale. A risk envelope up to $11.7B (if substantiated) demands centralized oversight and active international cooperation.● Cross-border complexity. Paths span multiple jurisdictions, bridges, exchanges, and OTC desks.● Process integrity. A centralized, evidence-led review minimizes procedural risk and maximizes market integrity.● Digital sovereignty. Protecting the Kyrgyz Republic’s digital-assets market is a state-level priority.
---
Scope of Verification
● 841,000 USDT trace: ingress → fragmentation → exchange/OTC paths → egress.● Consolidated AML view: wallet clustering, counterparty roles, sanctions screening, and flow scale estimation.● Procedural completeness: exhibits, graph files, hash-anchored audit trails, documented chain-of-custody.● "Media-line” check: correlation of on-chain events with publication timestamps (within statutory limits).

Open Verification for the Professional Community
We invite independent crypto-analysts, auditors, and newsrooms to run a parallel, blinded validation.
● We provide: hash-manifest of the dataset and methodology.● You provide: a report with verifiable steps, tooling references, and evidence-backed conclusions.
---
Community Contributions
By community request, Four Dragons will publish a **USDT (TRC-20)** address to cover validation costs (retainers, compute, notarizations).This is not company fundraising.

What This Means for the Kyrgyz Market
● Faster freezes and restorations with synchronized government-market action.● Transparent, rules-based processes defend against gray flows and attract investment.● One honest precedent outweighs a hundred slogans.

Quote
“We’re taking the evidence-first path: independent tooling, forensic-grade methodology, and law-enforcement-ready deliverables. If the hypothesis holds, it will be seen on-chain. If it doesn’t, that will be visible too. Blockchains don’t do backroom deals.”— Four Dragons PR/Legal
