The A7A5 ruble stabiblcoin, launched at the beginning of the year registered in Kyrgyzstan by Old Vector, has lost its binding to the Russian national currency against the background of US and UK sanctions against the issuer, serving infrastructure and project managers.

On the evening of August 21, the A7A5 stablecoin course fell to 99% of the nominal value (1 A7A5 = 1 RUB). After that, a partial restoration of the price was observed, but the stablecoin course remains in the red zone-at about 0.61 rubles per token.

August 22 Telegram account A7A5 (@A7a5Official) announced the termination of the “old smart contract WA7A5”, since the course no longer reflects the market value of the asset. Users are recommended to refrain from operations with this contract.

“All old tokens will be automatically exchanged for new ones on the basis of a balance of balance, taken on August 21, 2025 at 18:57:59 GMT+3. It will be a transparent and safe process for users. No action on your part is required, ”the project team said.

On August 21, the British authorities included the Kyrgyz companies Grinex, Tengricin, Old Vector, Capital Bank and Luxembourg Altair Holding, as well as individuals – Leonid Shumakov, Kantemir Chalbaev and Zhanyshbek Uul Nazarbek. The creators and managers of the A7A5 are accused of assisting the bypassing of international sanctions acting against Russia.
