Ukraine Strikes Back: Sanctions Target Russia’s Shadowy Crypto Operations

Ukraine turns the screws on Kremlin-linked crypto networks—because even oligarchs need an off-ramp when SWIFT gets cut.
Digital Iron Curtain Descends
Kyiv's latest sanctions aren't just freezing assets—they're targeting the blockchain backchannels propping up Putin's regime. No more ruble-to-BTC pipelines.
