EU Adds HTX Exchange to Russian Sanctions List
The European Union has included the HTX exchange in its latest round of sanctions against Russia.
HTX, an exchange previously sanctioned by the United Kingdom, has been added to a list of 18 entities by EU authorities, as reported by Cointelegraph. These entities are identified as providing crypto-asset services or payment services in violation of the EU's existing measures against Russia.
The inclusion of HTX on this list signifies an expansion of international efforts to enforce sanctions within the cryptocurrency sector. This move follows similar actions taken by other jurisdictions, indicating a coordinated approach to regulating crypto-related activities in sanctioned regions.
