Ministrstvo za finance ZDA: vloga kriptovalute pri financiranju Hamasa je manjša

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 narative 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 naložena sankcije za posameznike in subjekte, ki domnevno omogočajo transakcije s kriptovalutami za Hamas, palestinsko militantno skupino, ki jo ZDA in Evropska unija obravnavajo kot teroristično organizacijo. 

“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.
