🚫🇧🇾 In Belarus, not only Telegram channels, memes, and cats are now banned — but also cryptocurrency exchanges.

From December 10, the sites Bitget, ByBit, and OKX have officially been added to the restricted access list maintained by RUP "BelGIE". The decision was made by the Ministry of Information, and now users, especially subscribers of "Beltelecom", see the same message when attempting to access the exchanges:

"Access to the information resource is restricted based on the decision of the authorized body of the Republic of Belarus".

Moreover, this is not an isolated case — on December 5, the bot Smart Mining's website was also added to the blacklist at the request of the Investigative Committee.

🧩 The conclusion is simple: access to major cryptocurrency exchanges for Belarusian users has been officially blocked. People are already mass-reporting in thematic chats that they cannot access the platforms even through standard methods.

⚠️ Another signal that the tightening of control over the crypto sector in the region continues — and it seems that this will not end quickly.
