EU Prepares 23rd Sanctions Package: Risks for Russia's Crypto Infrastructure
- —The 23rd EU sanctions package may be unveiled by the end of 2026
- —Measures will be sectoral, targeting industries rather than individual firms
- —The 22nd package took effect on October 12, hitting 826 entities and 743 individuals
- —Moscow Exchange sued the EU Council after being sanctioned in July 2026
Why it matters: Russian investors' access to foreign exchanges will keep shrinking, while crypto settlement costs are set to rise on secondary sanctions risk.
