The European Union announced its decision to impose a new package of sanctions against Russia on 6 October, banning all crypto-asset wallets, accounts, or custody services, irrespective of the amount of the wallet. The new sanctions tightens the previous sanctions that limited the Russian payment to the EU wallet of up to 10,000 euro. This decision comes shortly after the Russian government approved the use of crypto for cross-border payment.
