  • Chairman of the Russian State Duma Financial Market Committee: I do not support a complete ban on the circulation of cryptocurrencies in Russia

    Anton Gorelkin, Chairman of the Financial Market Committee of the Russian State Duma, said that he does not support a complete ban on the circulation of cryptocurrency in Russia. He explained in a post on Telegram that this restriction is not intended to ban the use of all cryptocurrencies, but rather to regulate the establishment of cryptocurrency exchange platforms within the legal framework of Russia. Anton Gorelkin also believes that the establishment of a legitimate cryptocurrency infrastructure in Russia is influenced by geopolitical realities, and this requires consideration of factors related to international relations. He further added that allowing such infrastructure may expose Russian companies to Western sanctions. In addition, Anton Gorelkin pointed out that this restriction may be lifted in the future, and users can still use foreign cryptocurrency exchanges and over-the-counter trading services as before. However, the impact on many over-the-counter cryptocurrency services in Moscow is still uncertain.
