Bitcoin Confiscation from Tambiev: Transfer to State Revenue

a year ago


Russian bailiffs have initiated the transfer of over 1 billion rubles worth of Bitcoin seized from former investigator Marat Tambiev into state revenue.

The Seizure of 1032.1 BTC

In 2023, the Nikulinsky Court ordered the confiscation of 1032.1 BTC, deemed acquired through unconfirmed sources of income. This seizure has led to the transfer of the Bitcoin into Russia’s treasury, starting with the conversion into over 1 billion rubles.

Time and again, he rejected all allegations during the trial, denied cooperation with the authorities, and refused to admit guilt.

Legal Hurdles in Selling Seized Assets

The conversion of the seized Bitcoin into rubles faced several challenges. Tambiev had divided the Bitcoin into smaller amounts, necessitating multiple court requests to access and sell all the coins. In addition to Bitcoin, Tambiev’s assets, including real estate and a motorcycle, are also under review for liquidation.

Government's Determination to Reclaim Assets

Despite these challenges, the Russian government is determined to reclaim the stolen assets and ensure they are funneled back into the state's revenue.

The process of returning illegally obtained assets to the state treasury continues to be complex, but the authorities are determined to see it through.
