PANews reported on May 18 that according to Crowdfundinsider, the Kiev-Pechersk District Court of Ukraine ruled to transfer virtual assets seized in an investigation into major fraud and illegal gambling to the National Asset Recovery and Management Agency (ARMA). The assets involved came from a digital wallet registered on the crypto exchange Binance and belonged to a Ukrainian national (ОСОБА_6), who was suspected of money laundering through unlicensed platforms such as rollbit.com. The total amount of seized assets exceeded 500 million hryvnia, far exceeding the regulatory threshold.

The assets include a variety of cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Solana and Tether (USDT), distributed in multiple sub-accounts associated with the Binance main user ID. The total amount of various cryptocurrencies seized exceeds UAH 500 million, far exceeding the state regulatory threshold required by Ukrainian law. The court's decision also requires Binance, registered as Nest Services Limited in the Seychelles, to execute the transfer of assets and cooperate with Ukrainian authorities. ARMA expects to sell the assets through the official electronic auction platform in order to fulfill its responsibility to manage the seized property and return its value to the state budget.
