In Khmelnitsky region exposed a group that organized a fraudulent scheme to attract investments in their own cryptocurrency. Cyberpolice together with investigators of the State Department of National Security and Investigations and cyber specialists of the USBU said that the attackers took possession of digital assets of citizens of Ukraine, European countries and the Middle East.

To promote the scheme, the suspects created themed communities in Telegram, where they demonstrated fake incomes and lifestyles to encourage users to invest.

After purchasing tokens, investors lost the ability to manage their assets. The fraudsters laundered the proceeds through specialized anonymous services and cashed them out.

Law enforcers conducted searches in Khmelnytskyi and Kyiv. During the investigative actions seized:

  • computer equipment and cold wallets;
  • rough notes confirming illegal activities;
  • elite cars.

It is known about five victims from Ukraine. The organizer and three participants of the scheme were reported on suspicion under part 4 of article 190 and part 3 of article 362 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The maximum penalty — up to eight years of imprisonment.

We shall remind you that in July 2025, an international scheme of cryptocurrency-related fraud was exposed in Ukraine.

China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise

China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise

The post China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise China’s internet regulator has ordered the country’s biggest technology firms, including Alibaba and ByteDance, to stop purchasing Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D GPUs. According to the Financial Times, the move shuts down the last major channel for mass supplies of American chips to the Chinese market. Why Beijing Halted Nvidia Purchases Chinese companies had planned to buy tens of thousands of RTX Pro 6000D accelerators and had already begun testing them in servers.

Nvidia had unveiled the RTX Pro 6000D in July 2025 during CEO Jensen Huang’s visit to Beijing, in an attempt to keep a foothold in China after Washington restricted exports of its most advanced chips. But momentum is shifting. Industry sources told the Financial Times that Chinese manufacturers plan to triple AI chip production next year to meet growing demand. They believe “domestic supply will now be sufficient without Nvidia.” What It Means for the Future With Huawei, Cambricon, Alibaba, and Baidu stepping up, China is positioning itself for long-term technological independence. Nvidia, meanwhile, faces…
