When the number was called, a man first claimed the cash was real and that he ran a cryptocurrency exchange business and had been contacted by police, then changed his statement to say the cash was props after the caller identified as media.

The scene was at Maixing Rd and Mingzhu Rd in Huicheng District; nearby shops said they had not noticed the vehicle, and police declined to share details, noting they would pay attention during patrols.

Trading takeaway: The incident underscores scrutiny of cash-based crypto exchange activity in mainland China; virtual-currency business is prohibited under the Sep 24, 2021 joint notice by the People’s Bank of China and other agencies, implying compliance risk for OTC operators pending official verification outcomes.
