They are vague about the details.

Most likely got them as they left Monero (offramping onto an exchange or naively swapping in and out of transparent crypto) like all these articles claiming to have "traced" Monero.

Makes for good clickbait though

I’ve made this comment to people before that the US cracked the code. Granted there were no arrests ever and I feel like they just watched it play out instead but Japan wasn’t playing around.

Wonder if they will reveal how they did it
