Cyberattack forces Grinex cryptocurrency exchange to suspend operations
On 16 April 2026, cryptocurrency exchange Grinex suspended operations after a cyberattack resulted in the theft of approximately 1 billion rubles, about USD 13.1 million, in digital assets. Grinex attributed the incident to foreign intelligence services, but that attribution was not independently verified. The confirmed suspension of the exchange following the attack establishes a direct material service and operational disruption.
