tags. Need to translate each paragraph and heading while preserving HTML. Also note the meta description.
Important: Keep proper nouns like "Shih" (the surname) as is. Also "USDT" is a cryptocurrency ticker, keep as is. "NT$" is New Taiwan Dollar, keep as NT$ but maybe explain? No, just keep as NT$. The numbers and amounts must be exactly the same.
Translate naturally: "mastermind" -> "cerveau" or "instigateur"? "cerveau" is fine. "ringleader" -> "cerveau" or "meneur"? The article uses "ringleader" in meta description. In French, "cerveau" is common for criminal mastermind. Also "bilked" -> "escroqués" or "arnaqués". "defrauded" -> "escroqués". "lured investors" -> "attiré des investisseurs". "fake crypto-mining and trading platform" -> "fausse plateforme de minage et de trading de cryptomonnaies". "funneled money" -> "transférait l'argent". "laundered" -> "blanchis". "Assets seized" -> "Avoirs saisis". "recovered" -> "récupérés". "forfeiture order" -> "ordonnance de confiscation". "covers only a portion" -> "ne couvre qu'une partie". "restitution" -> "restitution". "victims" -> "victimes". "appeal" -> "faire appel".
Also note the meta description: "Taiwan's Shilin District Court sentenced the BitShine ringleader to 22 years for a crypto fraud that bilked 1,539 victims of $39 million and laundered over $2.3 billion." Translate: "Le tribunal de district de Shilin à Taïwan a condamné le cerveau de BitShine à 22 ans de prison pour une fraude crypto qui a escroqué 1 539 victimes de 39 millions de dollars et blanchi plus de 2,3 milliards de dollars." Use spaces as thousands separators in French? Usually in French, spaces are used: "1 539" and "2,3 milliards" (comma for decimal). But the original uses commas for thousands? Actually original: "1,539 victims" (comma as thousands separator in English) and "$2.3 billion" (dot as decimal). In French, we would write "1 539 victimes" and "2,3 milliards de dollars". But careful: the amount in the article is "$39 million" and "NT$1.27 billion". For consistency, keep the dollar amounts as in original but translate the text. For the meta description, we can write "39 millions de dollars" and "2,3 milliards de dollars". However, the original meta says "$2.3 billion" - that's 2.3 billion, not 2.3 million. So "2,3 milliards de dollars". Also note the original article says "roughly NT$1.27 billion (about $39 million)" - so the $39 million is the USD equivalent. In meta, it says "$39 million" and "$2.3 billion" (the laundered amount is NT$2.3 billion, but meta says "$2.3 billion"? Actually original meta: "laundered over $2.3 billion." That seems inconsistent with article which says "NT$2.3 billion" (New Taiwan dollars). But the meta says "$2.3 billion" - likely a mistake? Or they converted? The article says "more than NT$2.3 billion was laundered" and that is about $71 million? Wait: NT$2.3 billion at current exchange rate ~0.031 USD per NT$ gives about $71 million. But the meta says "$2.3 billion" which is a huge difference. Probably a typo in the original meta? The article clearly says NT$2.3 billion. I'll follow the article: for meta description, I'll translate the original meta as given, but note the discrepancy. However, the instruction says "Keep all facts, numbers, and data accurate." So I should correct? The original meta says "$2.3 billion" but article says "NT$2.3 billion". I think the meta is wrong. But the user provided the meta as part of the original content. I'll translate it as is, but maybe it's a mistake. To be safe, I'll keep the numbers as in the original meta: "$2.3 billion" but in French "2,3 milliards de dollars". However, the article says "NT$2.3 billion" which is not dollars. I'll note that the meta description might be inaccurate, but I'll follow the user's provided text. Alternatively, I could adjust to match the article? The instruction says "Maintain the exact meaning and tone" and "Keep all facts, numbers, and data accurate". Since the article itself says NT$2.3 billion, the meta saying "$2.3 billion" is a factual error. But the user gave both. I think I should translate the meta as given, but maybe I should correct? I'll assume the user wants the meta translated as is, but I'll double-check: The meta says "laundered over $2.3 billion." That is likely a mistake because the article says NT$2.3 billion. However, the user might have copied it from a source that had that error. I'll translate it faithfully: "et blanchi plus de 2,3 milliards de dollars." But to be accurate, I could write "2,3 milliards de dollars taïwanais"? No, the original says "$2.3 billion" meaning US dollars. I'll keep as is. The user didn't ask to correct facts, just to translate. So I'll translate the meta as given.
Now, produce JSON with title, content (HTML), and meta description.
Title: "Le cerveau de BitShine condamné à 22 ans de prison dans une affaire de fraude crypto de 39 millions de dollars"
Content: Translate each element. Keep tags. For the first paragraph: "A Taipei court sentenced the mastermind behind the BitShine cryptocurrency scheme to 22 years in prison, after prosecutors said the operation defrauded 1,539 victims of roughly NT$1.27 billion (about $39 million). The Shilin District Court also ordered the ringleader, identified only by his surname Shih, to forfeit NT$43.71 million in criminal proceeds."
Translation: "Un tribunal de Taipei a condamné le cerveau du système de cryptomonnaie BitShine à 22 ans de prison, après que les procureurs ont déclaré que l'opération avait escroqué 1 539 victimes d'environ 1,27 milliard de NT$ (environ 39 millions de dollars). Le tribunal de district de Shilin a également ordonné au meneur, identifié uniquement par son nom de famille Shih, de confisquer 43,71 millions de NT$ de produits criminels."
Note: Use "NT$" as is. For numbers, in French we use space as thousands separator: "1 539" but the original has comma. I'll use space. Also "1,27 milliard" with comma as decimal separator (French style). But careful: original says "NT$1.27 billion" - in English, billion is 10^9. In French, "milliard" is 10^9. So "1,27 milliard de NT$". Also "43.71 million" -> "43,71 millions de NT$". Use comma for decimal.
Second paragraph: "Between January 2024 and April 2025, Shih and his associates allegedly lured investors with promises of high returns from a fake crypto-mining and trading platform. Instead of generating profits, the operation funneled money through a web of accounts. Authorities estimate that more than NT$2.3 billion was laundered during that period."
Translation: "Entre janvier 2024 et avril 2025, Shih et ses associés auraient attiré des investisseurs avec des promesses de rendements élevés provenant d'une fausse plateforme de minage et de trading de cryptomonnaies. Au lieu de générer des bénéfices, l'opération transférait l'argent à travers un réseau de comptes. Les autorités estiment que plus de 2,3 milliards de NT$ ont été blanchis au cours de cette période."
Third paragraph: "Investigators recovered about 647,000 USDT, roughly NT$60.
