European authorities have shut down one of the largest pedophile platforms in the world that allowed users to pay using cryptocurrencies.

In the three years to March, 1.8 million users worldwide had logged on to the site, known as Kidflix, prosecutors from Bamberg, Germany, said in a statement on Wednesday. Together with their Dutch counterparts, they seized the platform’s server on March 11, which contained around 72,000 videos at the time.
