Drone Strikes on Yandex Data Center Cripple A7A5 Stablecoin Transactions

  • —A7A5 transfers fell from about 600 to 14 on Tron and 18 on Ethereum in 24 hours
  • —Market cap holds at $450-482 million while daily volume ranges from zero to $1,500
  • —A7A5 cited 'technical problems' after the Yandex data center strike on Oct. 7-8
  • —Users report no interest payments since Oct. 9 and support reachable only by phone
Why it matters: The case shows physical strikes on infrastructure can disrupt sanctions-evasion stablecoins, adding pressure on A7A5 and its issuer.
