Largest holders of crypto assets among Ukrainian officials: the leader owns 100 BTC
In 2025, Ukrainian officials submitted 2,861 declarations that included digital assets. This is 16% more than the previous year. In total, 654,159 declarations were filed during the reporting period, and nearly three thousand of them contained information about cryptocurrency. Notably, 265 such documents were submitted after the established deadline — after April 1, 2026.
Leaders in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT
The largest Bitcoin portfolio was declared by Oleksandr Kizlyar, a deputy of the Khmelnytskyi District Council — 100 BTC, valued at UAH 278.8 million (approximately RUB 500 million) as of June 10, 2026. Second place went to Oleh Bondarenko, a People's Deputy and head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Environmental Policy, with 80 BTC worth UAH 223 million. Third place was held by Kristina Pavlova, an employee of the Dnipro City Council's Department of Improvement, with 20 BTC valued at over UAH 55.7 million.
In the Ethereum owner ranking, Oleksandr Kizlyar also leads — 1,000 ETH worth nearly UAH 74 million. He is followed by Kristina Pavlova with 130 ETH (UAH 9.6 million) and Iryna Sukhovetruk, a representative of the Kyiv City Prosecutor's Office, with 100 ETH valued at about UAH 7.4 million.
The most USDT stablecoins were declared by Anna Fazikosh, head of the Zakarpattia Court of Appeal — over 1.019 million USDT, equivalent to nearly UAH 46 million. In second place is Pavlo Shandra, a deputy of the Odesa District Council, with 719,000 USDT (over UAH 32.4 million), and in third place is Maksym Kyselov, director of the Kyiv Scientific Research Institute of Forensic Examinations, with 647,000 USDT (over UAH 29.1 million). It is worth noting separately that six declarations for 2025 with cryptocurrency data are closed to public access for unknown reasons.
Who Declares Cryptocurrency Most Actively
Digital assets are most often indicated by employees of the National Police — they accounted for 548 declarations, or 19% of all cases. They are followed by prosecutor's office workers (358 declarations) and military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (240). Representatives of the judicial system (223 declarations) and city council employees (198) also account for a notable share. Among People's Deputies of the Verkhovna Rada, 16 out of 391 declared cryptocurrency — about 4%.
Geographically, more than 25% of all declarations with cryptocurrency came from Kyiv — 820 documents. The capital is followed by Kyiv (277), Dnipropetrovsk (215), Kharkiv (200), and Lviv (174) regions.
Expert comment: The 16% year-on-year increase in declarations with crypto assets signals the gradual integration of digital currencies into Ukraine's financial system. However, the presence of closed declarations and large portfolios among regional officials raise questions about the transparency of the sources of such funds. The market needs stricter verification mechanisms to separate legal savings from potential schemes.
