Polish Exchange Zondacrypto Halts Withdrawals, Reportedly Controlled by Russian Tambov Mafia

According to Gazeta Wyborcza citing Poland's Internal Security Agency (ABW), Zondacrypto, one of Central and Eastern Europe's largest crypto exchanges, halted withdrawals this month after being revealed as controlled by Russia's Tambov crime syndicate since 2018. The platform's reserves reportedly dropped over 99%, with the company unable to access a wallet holding 4,500 BTC. Polish prosecutors estimate around 30,000 users lost more than $95 million when the exchange stopped processing transactions.
