Ukrainian Government Places Bounty on Russian Politicos’ Crypto Info
Ukraine is seeking alternative ways to stave off the Russian invasion of their country
Wars can be fought on many fronts, as few stones are typically left unturned when seeking ways to gain the upper hand. Ukraine is showing ingenuity in that regards, as they are fighting against their recent unprovoked invasion by Russia through traditional military methods and also by looking to cripple Russian political leaders by actively seeking information about any cryptocurrency wallets they may own.
Bloomberg News’ Hannah Miller reports that Ukraine is looking to disrupt the finances of Russian political leaders by going after crypto assets.
On Saturday, Ukrainian Prime Minister Mykhailo Federov tweeted from his official account that “generous” rewards were being made available to anyone who might be able to pass along information about crypto wallets belonging to Russian and Belarusian politicians. This information has also reportedly been shared in online hacker forums.
