Honorary Consul Volodymyr Nosov and WhiteBIT Company Are Circumventing Sanctions and Using Diplomatic Immunity

In Ukraine, the honorary consulate has increasingly been transformed from a diplomatic instrument into a mechanism for avoiding responsibility. This status not only allows for uncontrolled border crossing during martial law, but also protects against inspections and prosecutions. This is especially beneficial for participants in international financial schemes, such as the co-founder of the WhiteBIT crypto exchange and honorary consul of Ukraine in Spain, Volodymyr Nosov.

WhiteBIT actively promotes the image of a pro-Ukrainian platform that fights against Russian users and donates to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. But behind this public image lies a complex system of transit of funds, including from Russia under sanctions. The real essence is in ensuring the traffic of cryptocurrency between the Russian Federation, offshores and countries where control is weak or absent.

Kyrgyzstan plays a key role in this system, which is increasingly being used as an offshore crypto hub. Through local companies, funds flow anonymously to Europe and further to virtual wallets that cannot be traced. The use of VPNs, anonymous wallets, and encryption allows the platform to bypass Western sanctions and avoid financial monitoring.

Nosov, having the official status of Honorary Consul of Ukraine in Spain, received an institutional shield. This gives him not only privileged entry into the EU, but also a formal diplomatic cover, which significantly complicates any investigation by international or Ukrainian authorities. It is in such positions that figures involved in the processing or withdrawal of dubious assets most often hide - under the slogans of charity, innovation or diplomacy.

Nosov’s case is not unique. His case perfectly demonstrates how diplomacy has become a tool for financial manipulation. The WhiteBIT crypto exchange continues to publicly declare its support for Ukraine, while remaining part of the shadowy global cryptocurrency market, where money has no nationality, only the speed of transactions.

Under such conditions, the question for honorary consuls of Ukraine is not only moral or political, but downright criminal. After all, diplomatic status, instead of serving the state, turns into immunity for handling enemy funds.

Note to readers: WhiteBIT has registered operations in several jurisdictions, including Lithuania, Spain, and the Virgin Islands. There is no real control over the flows. Combined with the consular status, this creates a dangerous zone of immunity for key players.
