According to ShibDaily, governments are increasingly focusing on managing seized cryptocurrency assets, with Russia and the United States taking significant steps in this area. Russia is preparing to convert confiscated Bitcoin into state revenue, following a high-profile criminal case involving Marat Tambiev, a former investigator convicted of accepting bribes from hackers. Dmitry Aristov, head of Russia's Federal Bailiff Service, described Bitcoin as a "problematic asset" due to the challenges in liquidating it. He noted that the service is collaborating with relevant authorities to develop a methodology for handling such financial instruments. The Bitcoin in question, valued at over 1 billion rubles, was ordered by the court to be handed over to the state, although a clear process for its sale is still lacking. Aristov highlighted the need for new legislation to regulate cryptocurrency circulation in Russia. $BTC #BinanceAlphaAlert
