US Treasury: crypto's role in Hamas funding minor PlatoBlockchain Data Intelligence. Vertical Search. Ai.

A U.S. Treasury official has stated that cryptocurrency constitutes only a small fraction of the funds raised by Hamas, the Palestinian militant group. 

The Treasury’s Undersecretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence Brian Nelson’s statement contradicts previous narațiuni that have overstated the role of crypto in such activities.

Speaking to the House Financial Services Committee on Wednesday, Nelson added that “terrorists” still prefer traditional products and services.

This statement comes amid heightened scrutiny over the use of digital currencies in financing terrorism. 

Last month, the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia impusă sancțiuni asupra persoanelor și entităților despre care se presupune că facilitează tranzacțiile cu criptomonede pentru Hamas, un grup militant palestinian pe care SUA și Uniunea Europeană îl consideră o organizație teroristă. 

“Hamas has sought to leverage a variety of financial transfer mechanisms, including the exploitation of cryptocurrency, to channel funds to support the group’s terrorist activities,” said Nelson in a January statement.
