Coinbase Intends to Comply With International Sanctions, Chief Legal Officer Says ‘Digital Assets Have Properties That Naturally Deter Sanctions Evasion’
Following the statements of the two chief executives from two of the largest crypto exchanges on the planet, Coinbase has published a ブログ投稿 concerning the company’s goals toward promoting sanction compliance. The post was written by Coinbase’s chief legal officer Paul Grewal and it touched upon the current conflict in Ukraine. 本質的に, the gist of the article highlights that “Coinbase is committed to complying with sanctions.”
“In the past few weeks, governments around the world have imposed a range of sanctions on individuals and territories in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,” Grewal’s post details. “Sanctions play a vital role in promoting national security and deterring unlawful aggression, and Coinbase fully supports these efforts by government authorities. Sanctions are serious interventions, and governments are best placed to decide when, where, and how to apply them.”
The Coinbase executive’s post further explains that crypto assets have specific “properties that naturally deter common approaches to sanctions evasion.” This is due to the fact that most blockchains are public, auditable, and traceable. As far as traceability is concerned, Grewal says when applied to public blockchain data, “analytics tools offer law enforcement additional capabilities.” さらに, blockchains have permanence, Grewal’s blog post summarizes, as the chief legal officer states:
Once recorded on the blockchain, transactions remain immutable. No one (not crypto companies, not governments, not even bad actors) can destroy, alter, or withhold information to evade detection.
Coinbase Has Blocked More Than 25,000 Addresses Tethered to Russian Individuals and Entities
The Coinbase blog post is very much aligned with the large number of corporate entities complying with sanctions and cutting ties with Russia. Over the last 13 日々, companies such as Netflix, アップル, グーグル, Tiktok, 血圧, エクソン, エクイナー, シェル, ボーイング, エアバス, フォード, ルノー, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota, ビザ, Mastercard, American Express, Dell, メタ, Ikea, and Nike have complied with international sanctions or cut ties with the Russian Federation.
Grewal notes in the company blog post that sanctioned individuals or entities are checked for during the onboarding process at Coinbase. The crypto company leverages sanction lists “maintained by the United States, United Kingdom, 欧州連合, United Nations, シンガポール, カナダ, and Japan.” さらに, Coinbase has sophisticated technology that can anticipate threats, Grewal disclosed.
“Coinbase maintains a sophisticated blockchain analytics program to identify high-risk behavior, study emerging threats, and develop new mitigations,” 事務所’s chief legal officer said. 現在, the exchange blocks thousands of blockchain addresses related to individuals or entities stemming from Russia. Grewal’s post explains:
今日, Coinbase blocks over 25,000 addresses related to Russian individuals or entities we believe to be engaging in illicit activity, many of which we have identified through our own proactive investigations. Once we identified these addresses, we shared them with the government to further support sanctions enforcement.
The Coinbase executive ends the post by saying the firm aims to help people protect and build wealth, but at the same time “security, safety, and transparency” are important foundations. “Our commitment to sanctions compliance” is part of the process, the Coinbase blog post concludes.
