Russia Blocks Bitcoin Sites Again
Yet another Russian Bitcoin internet resource was blocked a few hours ago. Bitnovosti.com has fallen another victim to Roskomnadzor. According to social media posts, the resource is unavailable in Russia.
When trying to access the site with a Russian IP it returns a notice as follows.
It should be noted that Unified Register for Banned Sites lacks any mention of bitnovosti.com, however, it seems to be a matter of time.
Several owners of Bitcoin sites that had been blocked in January, recently won a court case and successfully managed to overturn the ban. Back then, BTCsec.ru and coinspot.ru were banned.
