Binance limits crypto services to Russian users
Following the EU's fifth package of anti-Russia restrictions, Binance announced today in a blog post that it will limit services for "Russian nationals or natural persons residing in Russia, or legal entities established in Russia" with crypto holdings exceeding $10,900. Users who fit this description will be required to submit a proof-of-address check. According to the blog post, users who must now undergo checks in accordance with the new restrictions will be placed in "withdrawal-only mode," which means no deposits or trading will be permitted.Russians living outside the country who can provide proof of address, as well as those living within Russia but with less than €10,000, will be unaffected by the changes. Furthermore, Russian nationals, as well as individuals and entities within the country, with holdings that exceed the threshold and open futures and derivatives positions, will be given 90 days to close them. They will not be permitted to create new positions.
Sanctions by the EU
On April 8, the EU announced its most recent sanctions package. It included crypto wallets with Russian ties as a means of "closing potential loopholes" in the broader set of sanctions imposed on Russia in the midst of its weeks-long invasion of neighboring Ukraine. Ukraine's deputy minister of digital transformation, Alex Bornyakov, praised Binance's changes in a tweet.Binance even had plans to expand its services in Russia earlier this year, hoping for a progressive regulatory approach from Russia that could influence the approach of its neighboring countries, but the recent invasion appears to have slowed these plans.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
