Discussion of cryptocurrencies in Russia. Earlier, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said that more than 10 million Russians have purchased cryptocurrency. According to his data, Russian citizens have invested more than 10 trillion Russian rubles in digital assets.
Ksenia Yudaeva, Deputy Chairman of the Central Bank, equated digital assets with Ponzi schemes. She is concerned that cryptocurrencies can replace the ruble as the primary means of payment. The State Duma also allowed cryptocurrencies to be recognized as property. The amendments to the Tax Code of the Russian Federation could be adopted by the end of July 2022.
