As I’ve mentioned in this column, the US government has been looking into whether rogue governments like Iran and North Korea have been using cryptocurrencies to evade international trade sanctions.

I had a good source for those stories.

Last week, a 36-year-old researcher for the Ethereum Foundation — connected to Ethereum, one of the cryptocurrencies — was charged with helping North Korea do just that.

There’s probably more to come.
