Ukrainian authorities have blocked access to Kuna, the country's oldest crypto exchange, without explanation. The order, issued by Ukraine's State Service of Special Communications and Information Protection, directs internet service providers to block access to Kuna's domain and subdomains. Kuna's founder and CEO, Michael Chobanian, was not informed by authorities and only learned about the ban when users reported the issue. The restriction will remain in effect until martial law is lifted in Ukraine. Although the reason for the ban is unclear, Ukrainian news outlets report that Kuna is being investigated for alleged tax evasion. Chobanian announced the closure of Kuna and encouraged users to withdraw their funds within two months. He claimed that the ban came after he failed to pay kickbacks to a Ukrainian law enforcement agency seeking funds for the country's economy. Despite the ban, Chobanian remains optimistic and shifts his focus to symbiocracy and AI.
