Narcos Natalino Grasso stopped: the money from the cocaine shipped on the sailing ships invested in Bitcoin

From his 900 euro per month two-room apartment in Cernusco sul Naviglio, in the Milan area, Natalino Grasso organized cocaine shipments by sea, managing the ships, crews and logistics of international transshipments, mainly from Venezuela and Martinique. As reported today by Corriere della Sera, the 57-year-old narcos was stopped by the Goa del Gico of the Guardia di Finanza as part of an investigation coordinated by the prosecutor Rosario Ferracane and the deputy prosecutor Alessandra Dolci by the Milan DDA.

One of his cryptocurrency wallets worth 400 thousand euros was also seized, "decrypted" with codes reconstructed by investigators during months of wiretaps. “We have these 450, but in 10 years you know how much the bitcoin will be worth, it could be 3-4 million more, I know it and I don't touch anything because you can't live day by day, one day the little girl must not lack for anything!”, he said to his Venezuelan wife unaware that he was being listened to by the financiers.

According to what emerged from the investigations, Grasso organized the transport of approximately 400-450 kilos of cocaine which took place in July 2022 from Venezuela to Spain, "making use of his trusted men who were in Venezuela and through the use of a sailing ship called 'Ventura'”. Likewise, in the past he would have managed the transport of 600 kilos of drugs from Lazy Bones and, just a month ago in the waters of Martinique, a ton of cocaine, seized last June 8 by a frigate of the French Navy.
