By comparison, the number of Russians aware of cryptocurrencies was 17% in 2017. The agency surveyed 1600 respondents over the age of 18 in 53 Russian regions. The NAFI pointed out that the statistical error of the data does not exceed 3,4%.

What preceded it? Earlier, the Central Bank of Russia instructed financial institutions to increase oversight of cryptocurrency-related transactions. According to the decree, transactions involving digital assets should not violate Russia’s retaliatory sanctions against countries that have imposed economic restrictions on Russians.
