According to Incrypted, the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine stated that Ukraine has, for the first time, handed over seized virtual assets to the National Agency for the Recovery and Management of Assets (ARMA) for management, involving over 8.3 million USDT, equivalent to approximately 372 million hryvnias. The assets in question come from an investigation into an international hacker group, and prosecutors allege that the group has launched cyberattacks on individuals and businesses in European countries and the United States, stolen confidential information, and demanded ransoms. The case has resulted in the seizure of total assets worth over $11.1 million, of which virtual assets exceed $8.3 million. Law enforcement authorities have detained four members of the group, including the main organizer.

The hacker demanded a ransom and received USDT, but ended up becoming the nation's ransom.

Four people pulled off $11.1 million, which is a high per capita output, but the prison sentences are also high.

Ukraine's move is pretty slick, directly counting on-chain assets as treasury revenue.

“ARMA” sounds like ARMA 3—talk about a perfect fit for the profession.
