More crypto sanctions incoming but only for these specific addresses. (Reporting by onceatraveler)
Jonatan Zimenkov, a Russian national with access to at least one BTC wallet and one ETH wallet.
According to the U.S. Treasury, Jonatan is the son of arms dealer Igor Vladimirovich Zimenkov, who runs the sanctions evasion network. The group was allegedly behind supplying technology to a Russian company following the country’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, as well as supporting certain “sanctioned, state-owned Russian defense entities,” including Rosoboroneksport and Rostec.
“Igor Zimenkov was designated pursuant to E.O. 14024 for operating or having operated in the defense and related materiel sector of the Russian Federation economy,” said OFAC. “Jonatan Zimenkov was also designated pursuant to E.O. 14024 for having materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of, Igor Zimenkov.”
Treasury is taking more action as part of the U.S. strategy to methodically & intensively target Russia's sanctions evasion efforts around the globe, and to make it harder & costlier for Russia's military-industrial complex to re-supply Putin's war machine.
