Bitget Expands Sanctions List to 20, Ties Direct Transfers to Account Termination

Bitget has expanded its sanctions-related list to 20 entries and says it will reject deposits and withdrawals directly involving listed entities, with the accounts involved subject to termination. The exchange announced the change on Oct. 16 at 7:56 a.m. ET (11:56 UTC). It follows an enhanced screening measure introduced in August that covered 16 entities. The latest notice specifies rejection and account termination for direct transactions involving the expanded list. The four additions are Tokenspot CJSC, BitBank3 (bitbank.com), and the cryptomus.com and heleket.com domains associated with Xeltox Enterprises. The other entries are Aban Tether Exchange, Shelbit, A7 Africa, A7 Nigeria, PilotFinance, ABCeX, Aifory Pro, BitPapa, EXMO, Exnode, HTX (Huobi Global SA), Monease, NoOnecrypto, Rapira, Tradex and WhiteBird. The U.K. added 38 entries to its Russia sanctions list on Oct.
