Recently the crew behind the Sodinokibi Ransomware has started accepting the Monero cryptocurrency instead of Bitcoin to make it harder investigation by law enforcement agencies.
The gang is planning to doesn’t allow bitcoin payments in the future.
The use of the Tor anonymized network to make Monero payments makes it impossible to trace the funds and attempt to de-anonymize the threat actors behind the campaign.
Sodinokibi operators announced that they will remove Bitcoin as an accepted payment method.
