The U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control sanctioned digital currency addresses associated with a Russian military task force.
The sanctioned addresses included BTC, ETH and USDT that OFAC said belong to Task Force Rusich, a sabotage and reconnaissance group with neo-Nazi ties that goes by a number of aliases. In total, 22 individuals and 2 entities have been sanctioned for facilitating aggression in Ukraine.
The U.S. and an international coalition of allies and partners have tried to substantially sever Russia’s access to the world’s financial infrastructure following its invasion of Ukraine earlier this year. Russia has been looking for new ways to process payments and conduct transactions, according to OFAC.
