Rosfinmonitoring is going to launch a register of suspicious addresses-identifiers of digital currencies. The corresponding provision is contained in the technical task for the development of the internal IT system of the department published on the public procurement website.

The department is going to include in the register of the address of cryptocurrencies that will supply the tax service, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, special services, banks and some “foreign partners”. The department claims that they create a digital ecosystem to strengthen the fight against laundering of criminal proceeds, the financing of terrorist groups and the spread of weapons of mass destruction.

The register will also be used to automate financial investigations, monitor operations with digital ruble and register miners.

Cryptoists can oblige the register to interact, providing information about transfers.

From June 1, Rosfinmonitoring will receive the right to suspend banking operations of people suspected of laundering funds or financing extremism.

The subsidiary of Rostelecom Fuzzy Logic Labs, together with the company Shard, launched the service in parallel “Cryptocoplase“that allows you to check wallets and transactions for anomalies and inconsistencies with the requirements of the fight against money laundering (Aml). The technical director of Fuzzy Logic Labs Valery Golubev said that the service is able to reduce financial risks and protect the business from reputation costs when working with cryptocurrencies.

Earlier, the Commission of the Government of Russia for Foreign Affairs approved A mechanism that allows investigators to remove cryptocurrency in the framework of criminal cases.
