Marco Enmanuel González López Arrested for Assaulting Bitcoin Mining Farm

The National Police of Paraguay arrested Marco Enmanuel González López, 29, on October 28, 2026, under a warrant for the assault on a Bitcoin mining farm. The arrest took place in the Catedral neighborhood of Ciudad del Este during a surveillance operation. González López is being prosecuted for aggravated robbery and other crimes. The intervention was carried out after receiving intelligence information and observing the suspect leaving a building. Upon verifying his identity, it was confirmed that he had an outstanding arrest warrant issued by the Penal Court of Caacupé, related to a robbery that occurred in April 2025 in Altos, where a French investor was a victim. After the arrest, he was transferred to the Department of Investigations, and the Public Ministry was notified. This case adds to the interventions in the Bitcoin mining sector in Paraguay, where 18 mining equipment units were seized in Ciudad del Este on October 15 for irregular connections.
