[Chain News] A leading exchange has just released its 2025 transparency report, covering the data period from October 2024 to September 2025. In this year, they processed a total of 12,716 law enforcement requests from over 60 countries – including subpoenas, court documents, and search warrants as part of these formal processes.
The figures look quite exaggerated? In fact, they are only 19% higher than last year. Looking at a longer timeline, over the past four years, they have remained stable between 10,000 and 13,000 each year, with not much fluctuation.
There is a notable change: the proportion of requests from outside the United States has climbed to 53%, an increase of 2 percentage points from the previous period. Although the United States remains a major requester, the trend towards globalization is clear—six countries (the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, and Australia) account for about 80% of the request volume. From 2022 to now, the United States has consistently held the top position.
The platform has also stated: as long as these requests are within the local legal framework.
