The measure applies not only to centralized exchanges but also to decentralized platforms (DeFi), which enable anonymous or difficult-to-trace transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the European Commission, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consilium.europa.eu\/en\/press\/press-releases\/2026\/04\/23\/russia-s-war-of-aggression-against-ukraine-20th-round-of-stern-eu-sanctions-hits-energy-military-industrial-complex-trade-and-financial-services-including-crypto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">this is a response to a growing trend<\/a> where Russia is shifting part of its international financial operations to crypto.

Specifically mentioned are assets like A7A5, which can serve as a tool for cross-border payments outside the oversight of traditional institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/crypto-globe.com\/mica-tlaci-male-kryptofirmy-ke-zdi-regulace-eu-muze-prepsat-mapu-trhu-jeste-letos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">European Union<\/a> has also banned the use of the planned digital currency of the Russian central bank (CBDC). The digital ruble was meant to be one of the tools for circumventing restrictions in international payment systems.

This was one of the key drivers for tightening the rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Every additional day of Russian attacks on Ukrainian civilian infrastructure means another day of suffering for the Ukrainian people,&#8221; the Commission stated, adding that the aim of the measures is to increase pressure on Russia and force it to negotiate under conditions acceptable to Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The package was also developed following a meeting between European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who discussed further EU support in the context of the ongoing war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Read next: <a href=\"https:\/\/crypto-globe.com\/en\/anycoin-czech-pioneer-in-the-digital-financial-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Anycoin Review<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-dopad-i-mimo-rusko-hledacek-miri-na-spojence-15\">Impact beyond Russia: crosshairs on allies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sanctions are not limited to Russia alone. The EU also mentions entities linked to Belarus and other actors who may help circumvent restrictions. Cryptocurrencies are thus ceasing to be a &#8220;neutral&#8221; tool and are increasingly becoming the center of geopolitical tensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"aioseo-pod-drobnohledem-i-iran-a-globalni-burzy-17\">Iran and global exchanges under scrutiny<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Similar concerns are emerging outside Europe.

For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/crypto-globe.com\/mastercard-spousti-globalni-kryptomenovy-program-spojuje-binance-paypal-i-ripple-a-chce-zmenit-mezinarodni-platby\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Binance<\/a> reportedly faced <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.synoptic.com\/zw8569tz5l.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">internal problems<\/a> after information emerged about transactions worth up to one billion dollars linked to Iranian entities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"aioseo-neprehlednete-bitmarkets-com-jak-vam-token-btmt-zlepsi-obchodovani-s-kryptomenami\">Don&#8217;t Miss<a href=\"https:\/\/crypto-globe.com\/bitmarkets-com-jak-vam-token-btmt-zlepsi-obchodovani-s-kryptomenami\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">: <\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/crypto-globe.com\/en\/bitmarkets-com-how-the-btmt-token-will-improve-your-cryptocurrency-trading\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">BITmarkets.com: Crypto Exchange Review That Rewrites the Rules of the Game<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The EU is significantly expanding pressure on Russia \u2013 and now fully includes cryptocurrencies in it.
