I originally was sent an article from Politico Pro an article that covered this very thing however the Politico Pro one mentions a few extra things including
- The US has sanctioned 13 entities for helping Russia bypass international sanctions through virtual aset services and technology procurement (occurred in March)
- According to Russia they rank third behind the US and Kazakhstan in crypto mining capabilities
- Due to a glitch at a Rostov nuclear power plant several regions of Russia were forced to introduce electrical cutoffs
- Last year Russian military units together received more than $1.8 million in donations via cryptocurrency
