Yesterday there was a burst of machine gun fire near the Kyiv crypto exchanger.
Two injured and 14 arrested - this is the end of the conflict between activists and employees of the cryptocurrency exchanger.
Alexey ended up in the hospital Seredyuk, an activist of one of the Ukrainian radical parties. Seredyuk is a member of the Brotherhood party, which is known for its loud protests.
The name of the second victim is unknown.
Police said warning shots were fired into the air from a machine gun. There were no gunshot wounds to the participants in the fight. What is the essence of the conflict and who the initiator is is still unknown.
Special forces and an investigative team arrived at the scene and arrested the participants in the fight. In fact, a criminal case has been opened under the article - hooliganism.
Local media have made assumptions about racketeering. Perhaps the nationalists demanded money from a bitcoin exchange.
Mikhail Chobanyan, head of the Ukrainian crypto exchange Kuna, suggested that two cryptocurrency structures were in conflict. In this case, radical activists could be recruited as “mercenaries.”
