英國高等法院近日透過遠端方式審理一宗高額比特幣失竊案件。原告 Ping Fai Yuen 指控其分居妻子 Fun Yung Li 於 2023 年偷走其保存在 Trezor 硬體錢包內的 2,323 枚比特幣,並稱對方是透過家中監視器(CCTV)偷拍助記詞與存取密碼後,將資產分批轉移,涉案比特幣按報導時市值約值 1.76 億美元。
原告:妻子與其姊妹偷拍助記詞後轉走比特幣
Ping Fai Yuen 與 Fun Yung Li 原本為夫妻,爭執發生於離婚程序期間。 2023 年 7 月初,Ping 的長女向父親透露母親正計劃奪取他的比特幣,Ping 隨即安裝錄音設備監聽。 7 月 29 日及 31 日的錄音檔成為關鍵證據,其中清楚錄到 Fun Yung Li 與妹妹討論:「比特幣已經轉到我這裡了」、「先拿走」、「要小心,他追不到我們」、「用第二個錢包」、「找駭客」等對話,還提及大筆資金如何避開銀行與警方追查的問題。
根據英國高院 King’s Bench Division 於 2026 年 3 月 10 日 公布的判決書,法院文件顯示,原告主張第一被告 Fun Yung Li 與第二被告 Lai Yung Li 涉及將比特幣「轉出/外流」(exfiltrate),並指資產被轉往多個地址。原告一方主張這些比特幣被轉往 71 個不同地址。
法院文件亦收錄原告提出的錄音對話摘要,其中包括被告討論如何處理大額資金、避免引起銀行或警方注意等內容。判決書還提到,被告住處遭搜索時,警方查獲了法官所稱「將比特幣外流所需的設備」。
警方曾拘捕妻子,但暫未有進一步行動
2023 年 8 月 2 日,比特幣突然從 Ping 的冷錢包被轉出,之後再無任何交易紀錄。 Ping 報警後,警方於 12 月 23 日逮捕 Fun Yung Li,並在其住所搜出 10 個冷錢包(含 Trezor)、 5 組 Seed,以及多隻名貴手錶。警方成功解鎖其中 4 個錢包,其中 3 個可確認屬於 Ping 所有,執法部門後來表示,「證據不足」,除非出現新證據,否則暫不採取進一步行動。
案件背景更添戲劇性。 2024 年 9 月,Ping 因發現比特幣被轉走而與妻子發生肢體衝突,隨後被控「造成實際身體傷害」及兩項普通襲擊罪,於 2024 年 9 月 13 日認罪並服刑。目前 Ping 已移居泰國,Fun Yung Li 則居住在香港。被告 Fun Yung Li 在法院文件中僅提交「不知情」的簡短否認,並未出席聽證會,其律師僅以「旁聽」姿態出席。妹妹 Lai Yung Li 則完全迴避送達,目前仍未正式應訴。
法院判決重點:部分訴訟請求被駁回
2026 年 3 月 10 日,Cotter 法官作出判決(案號:KB-2025-004313,Yuen v Li [2026] EWHC 532 (KB)):
- 勝訴機率極高:「證據非常不利於被告(damning evidence)。原告事先獲女兒警告、錄音內容極具殺傷力,且被告住所搜出轉移比特幣所需設備。」
- 資產凍結令維持:比特幣目前仍凍結在 71 個地址,法院要求被告不得轉移或處分。
- 部分訴訟請求被駁回:傳統的「侵佔」(conversion)及「侵占動產」(trespass to goods)不適用於比特幣等無形資產,已被刪除;但原告可於 7 日內修改訴狀,改以「不當得利」(unjust enrichment)、「違反保密義務」、「不法手段致損失」等新訴因繼續追討
- 其他裁定:駁回被告要求原告提供訴訟費用擔保的申請,同意以替代送達方式通知被告妹妹,建議盡快安排單一聯合加密追蹤專家及正式審理。
法官:原告勝訴機率非常高!建議儘早開庭審理
在此次程序性裁決中,Cotter 法官表示,就目前證據看來,原告證明其主張成功的機率「非常高」(a very high probability of success)。法官指出,錄音內容「極具殺傷力」,而警方在第一被告住處搜出相關設備,也強化了原告說法。
「依我判斷,原告已展現出極高的勝訴可能性。」Cotter 法官還補充道,「證據表明,他曾被告知第一被告的意圖,筆錄也確鑿無疑,而且,在搜查第一被告的住所時,發現了竊取比特幣所需的必要設備。」
判決書第 102 段寫道,第一被告已有多次機會提出自己的說法,但她選擇不這樣做。而比特幣至今仍停留在那些被轉往的地址,也與原告一方的敘事相符,基於這些因素,法官認為原告在實體審理中勝出的可能性很高。

UK FCA Conducts Coordinated Raids on Illegal P2P Crypto Trading Sites in London
FCA raids eight London sites tied to unregistered P2P crypto trading, issuing cease-and-desist notices. Evidence points to money-laundering and terror-financing probes; no P2P platform is FCA-registered; enforcement signals a tougher AML crackdown.
Abstract: The FCA, with tax authorities and police, conducted surprise raids at eight London sites linked to unregistered peer-to-peer crypto trading, issuing cease-and-desist notices. The operation underpins ongoing money-laundering and terrorist-financing probes. No P2P platform is FCA-registered in the UK. Analysts view the action as a shift from statements to enforcement, signaling potential broader crackdowns under AML and financial-promotion rules for crypto assets, which remain high-risk investments.
