According to the Cointelegraph, the US Senate Intelligence Committee has released the fifth item of its research into Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential election. There are reports that the former CEO of Overstock.com and lawyer specializing in cryptocurrency, Patrick Bryne, was close to Maria Butina, who was Russia's acting representative. This relationship is also the reason Bryne left Overstock last year. The data also provided a long-standing confirmation that Russian intelligence services were using cryptocurrencies to support phishing sites and VPNs to conduct the 2016 US presidential election.
