Seems like there has been a raid, and $7.5 million frozen from webmoney (or more precisely, their "guarantor" in Ukraine) today:

Quote
"The authorities have seized a large amount of computer equipment which was used for the system's operation. "Over 60 million Hryvnas ($7.5 million) held in the bank accounts of companies which were part of in the illegal system have been frozen," the ministry said."

Wonder if there will be any escalation here or if this is a minor issue?

Either way, all these asset seizures are nothing but bullish news for bitcoin.
