Netanyahu Blockchain Sanctions Evasion Concerns Rise

Original: Bibi and the Blockchain: When a Prime Minister Plans for Sanctions Evasion

The Royal United Services Institute has published an analysis arguing that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is weighing blockchain and cryptocurrency tools as a hedge against possible international sanctions. The piece frames digital assets as a means of evading financial restrictions, a tactic associated with sanctioned states like Russia and Iran. The framing of a sitting Western-aligned leader considering such measures is drawing attention among sanctions and security analysts.

Why now: A respected security think tank has accused a sitting prime minister of planning for sanctions evasion, an unusual and contentious claim.
