Kontigo, a crypto fintech firm backed by Coinbase Ventures, is under scrutiny for allegedly facilitating fund flows related to Venezuela's economy, according to the Wall Street Journal. The company is accused of enabling transactions involving stablecoins used in Venezuela's oil exports, with funds reportedly moving through local banks and crypto platforms, including Kontigo. In response to these allegations, major institutions like JPMorgan, Stripe, and Bridge have severed ties with Kontigo, and users have reported restrictions on PayPal services on the platform. Additionally, Kontigo recently experienced a cyberattack, leading to a notable drop in activity in its on-chain wallet. The company is conducting an internal compliance review and has reaffirmed its commitment to U.S. sanctions and legal standards.
