Title: [2016-01-19][Forklog.net] Russian senator states propagation of cryptocurrency Post by: bezbezbez on January 19, 2016, 06:33:11 PM Russian senator states propagation of cryptocurrency is inevitable.
Lyudmila Bokova, deputy chairwoman at Russian Federation Council’s costitutional committee, states that propagation of cryptocurrencies in Russia shall be deemed inevitable.
