Crypto exchanges resist calls for ban on Russia transactions
Crypto exchanges resist calls for ban on Russia transactions
Crypto exchanges are coming under pressure to block transactions with Russia, as western politicians fear that cryptocurrencies provide a back door to move money around the world while they seek to shut Russia out of the global financial system.
Trading between the Russian rouble and crypto assets such as bitcoin and tether has doubled since the assault on Ukraine began, reaching $60mn a day on Monday, according to data from Chainalysis, a crypto research group. That suggests Russian accounts — barred from the established dollar-based financial system through sanctions — are stashing funds in crypto or moving wealth overseas.
Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine’s vice-prime minister, on Sunday called on “all major crypto exchanges to block addresses of Russian users”, saying it is “crucial to freeze not only the addresses linked to Russian and Belarusian politicians, but also to sabotage ordinary users”.
Western allies have imposed sanctions on hundreds of individuals, chiefly oligarchs and politicians close to President Vladimir Putin, and most big exchanges have said they will comply with those restrictions.
But several have pushed back on any Russia-wide bans.
“To unilaterally decide to ban people’s access to their crypto would fly in the face of the reason why crypto exists,” said Cayman Islands-registered Binance, one of the world’s biggest crypto exchanges. Rival OKX, based in the Seychelles, also said it had no plans to bar Russian accounts in bulk.
Western powers have expressed concern about crypto being used to evade sanctions. A White House official said the Biden administration was “continuing to aggressively combat the misuse of cryptocurrency, including to evade US sanctions”.
Liz Truss, UK foreign secretary, said on Monday that Britain was looking at cryptocurrency as a route that could be used to undermine sanctions aimed at Russian banks and global payments.

Due to its wide range of capabilities, an AI writing assistant can potentially make marketers' jobs easier: It can generate content at scale while also making sure that every post has the right tone and structure according to client specifications. In addition, it can also take care of error-prone tasks such as copy editing
Many copywriters are now using AI writers to create content because software can identify the best structure and vocabulary to use, which can be a time-consuming process for copywriters. It also helps them with writer’s block by giving them new ideas on what they should write about.
AI writers are also much cheaper than human copywriters and can generate content at scale. This is thanks to their ability to learn from large sets of data and perform efficiently.

Imran Khan Announces Zero Tax for Pakistani Freelancers
Imran announces zero tax for IT freelancers
ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday announced a zero tax rate for freelancers in the information technology sector.
He said Pakistanis, especially the youth, had great talent but the system did not allow them to excel.
Speaking at the launch of the National E-Tijarat Portal, Mr Khan assured the youth of “all-out facilitation” by the government and urged them not to miss the IT revolution. They should not only generate revenues for themselves, but also help bridge the country’s trade gap.
“This is the technology revolution. The youth should in no way miss it. We expect the country’s IT exports to reach $50 billion in a few years.”
He said the IT industry favoured the youth as persons in their 20s had become billionaires and had older people work as their subordinates.
Announcing a policy of zero tax for registered e-freelancers, the prime minister said American entrepreneur and philanthropist Bill Gates visited Pakistan recently on his invitation because he wanted to involve him in Pakistan’s IT sector.
