In the fight against illegal mining, the confiscation of cryptocurrencies is more important than bans. Deputy Head of the State Duma Committee Anton Gorelkin believes that the seizure of illegally obtained funds is more effective, especially after the discovery of two large 'gray' mining farms in the Irkutsk region with equipment worth over $6 million. The bill from the Ministry of Digital Development, which provides for fines and the confiscation of cryptocurrencies, is under review. Experts emphasize that without clear legal mechanisms and cooperation from energy companies, it is difficult to completely eliminate illegal mining. Measures have been introduced in the Irkutsk region to identify illegal miners through energy network load analysis and neighbor complaints. Confiscation of cryptocurrencies and equipment are important tools in the fight, allowing for a reduction in the load on the energy system and increasing market transparency.$ADA$XRP$SUI
