As for restrictions in other countries, the analysts highlight measures such as a ban on transactions for banks and businesses, a ban on exchanges, and strict measures to declare and tax cryptocurrencies for individuals. In 103 countries, the situation remains favorable for cryptocurrencies, with the tax legislation implemented here, as well as measures against money laundering and terrorist financing.
How did analysts assess the situation in Russia? Interestingly, Russia is not yet on the list of countries that have banned cryptocurrency. On the last page of the report, our country is in the green zone. This means that (according to the document’s creators) Russia has implemented both the industry taxation and the anti-money laundering legislation.
