🇬🇧 The UK introduced new sanctions against crypto exchanges and payment networks, which, according to London, helped Russia circumvent Western restrictions, among them are Huobi (HTX), banks and companies from Georgia and the UAE.

The targets are not just individual services, but the infrastructure around A7/Garantex — assets are frozen, and British companies are prohibited from conducting payments and banking operations with them.

The main difference from old sanctions is that Britain is now trying to cut off not the storefront, but the "pipes" themselves through which money moved via crypto, OTC, and foreign intermediaries.
