The Council of Appeals in Thessaloniki ruled that the suspected cryptocurrency criminal Alexander Vinnik should be extradited to Russia on Monday, subject to a decision by the Greek Minister of Justice.

The former Bitcoin operator is accused of defrauding thousands by launching cyberattacks and money laundering through his cryptocurrency platform. He is wanted on criminal charges by the US, Russia and France.
