The U.S. Secret Service, in coordination with the DOJ, FBI, Europol and multiple national police agencies, seized the domain of the sanctioned Russian crypto exchange Garantex and replaced its nameservers after EU sanctions and Tether blocking of wallets forced the exchange to suspend services; the report recounts prior OFAC sanctions tying Garantex to darknet markets and ransomware money laundering, and notes the exchange lost its Estonian license in 2022.
