Calls to Block Russian Users Rejected

Japon’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) and the Japan Virtual and Crypto Assets Exchange Association have reportedly said they are trying to find ways of stopping blacklisted Russian entities from evading sanctions via the use of cryptocurrencies. Japon’s move to target Russian cryptocurrency users has come shortly after Tokyo imposed sanctions on Russian officials including the countrys President, Vladimir Poutine.

D'autre part, un rapport suggested that the two parties are, toutefois, not discussing or deliberating on a plan to block all Russian users. Au lieu, the report said the regulator is focused on finding ways to stop anyone that uses cryptocurrencies to evade sanctions.

Comme précédemment signalé par Bitcoin-Tidings.com Actualités, some major cryptocurrency exchanges have refused to block all Russian users as has been demanded by many including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. One of these exchanges, Kraken, said it cannot freeze the accounts of Russian clients without a legal requirement to do so.

Revelations that Japan is planning to block sanctioned Russian entities are coming just a few days after some South Korean cryptocurrency exchanges confirmed that they are nowblocking users from countries that are at high risks of money laundering.
