No.

A payment processor from Russia and not even on of the top 3.
And to make things worse,  ChronoPay is probable the worst of them.

And it's founder and owner ...

Bitcoin doesn't need this kind of hype anymore.
It's not 2013 to cheer every time a shop accepts bitcoin.

I'll open another beer if I see Putin taking payments for the s400 in bitcoins.

A country doesn't "adopt" Bitcoin until a large number of people begin using it, regularly, as an alternative to fiat currency.

Allowing something to exist does not encourage it, and a few merchants accepting it in addition to fiat does not indicate adoption at all.

Any price rises which happen from this would just be empty speculation, not based on actual users.

I don't think that one company's decision can make a big difference to Bitcoin. Let say they do really accepted Bitcoin in their payment processors the question is will the people be using it as an option? Let us go back to what drives Bitcoin, and its  the demand of it if people are started using Bitcoin as a 2nd kind of currency in Russia then you are right.

Yes, Russia is considering legal recognition with Bitcoin as a financial instrument, possibly by 2018. The government initially proposed strict penalties for using or creating The digital money, but then they changed their minds, officials abandoned a more punitive approach after Moiseev personally pointed out that Russia could recognize Bitcoin as a form of foreign currency. They may also want to recognize Bitcoin to control the entire transactions

This seems a great movement from the Russians, If they are implement the bitcoin as a payment processor of their own. It would be next big snow on bitcoin, you no need to worry about BTC economy. Price will be take to flight and it may 3000$ after some days or a month.
Just buy for yours as much you can now itself.

No, at the moment Russia isn’t adopting Bitcoin, it is legalizing the use of Bitcoin. For a while Russia had banned the use of Bitcoin, but recently has said it would lift the ban and allow people to use it. While this can’t hurt Bitcoin it can’t really help either unless a large amount of people start using it because of the ban repeal.

Though this is a sort of legalizing with some certain controls and regulations, this is indeed better than totally banning Bitcoin from use in Russia. I am sure that finance managers already look at the situation and finally realized that they can miss a big boat here for opportunities. They must have learned that Japan has already done it can is poised to reap the benefits that Bitcoin can bring to a country if properly managed. This can soon be another cap on Bitcoin shoulder and can help push the currency to new heights.

Russia had its effect on the bitcoin price when they finally said they are thinking about legalizing bitcoin after many years. the news like this is not going to change much about price, maybe a little nudge but nothing major. but these types of things will help bitcoin in the long run. a payment processor accepting bitcoin will attract more users by introducing bitcoin to them and that is the long term adoption.

Bwa ha, but IMO likely a lot of truth there.  But, Putin will not wear a plastic Trezor.  Gold or platinum, perhaps.  Or if Patek Phillippe would make a hardware device.

BTC is a tad too decentralized for typical Russian governments that like control.  Yeah, sure, I would like to see a major player like Russia get into Bitcoin in a big way.  That would add maybe another $500 to the price, smile,,,  But, as they used to say when I lived in Texas:

"Hold your breath, you'll die."

i believe it is a bit too soon for a "price explosion" because we just had the biggest rise and now price is calm and we are experiencing the after correction accumulation phase.
if this news came out a week or two earlier that would have made a big impact.

If its true,then that would be a great news.Russia being the second super power would definitely help bitcoin price to raise by adopting bitcoin.Hope the same strategy would be taken by indian government too without trying to ban bitcoin.Russia is a communist country which doesnot allows new inventions easily.But since it has decided to accept bitcoin payments,thats a big success for bitcoin.

I do not agree with you. If some of your bigger payment processors show enough confidence to publicly announce that they are going to accept Bitcoin as a payment option, then the smaller merchant will follow. We normally see the smaller merchants taking the lead with something new, but this is a significant move from the bigger players. ^smile^

The same thing happened in Japan, and the wheel started to turn.

i don't know how big is this chronopay but unless this thing is big like paypal, it won't do much for the adoption, but it's nice to have beginning there in russia, if other small payment processor will follow you can have something

but until russia regulate directly and view bitcoin as a currency like japan, it won't increase the usage  too much in their country

This has been a long back news. Russia after taking back the ban levied on bitcoin usage within the country made plans of using bitcoin to be the platform to make the financial system perfect. So one among the largest retailer of Russia accepting bitcoin doesn't looks to make impact on the price.

this is not a process to happen overnight. and that means "allowing something to exist" is the first step of many follow up steps in direction of mass adoption. there currently are a lot of merchants, small or big, wanting to accept bitcoin or add bitcoin payment option, but since it is not regulated they are hesitant.
and the same goes with users. many are hesitant because bitcoin is not regulated or many do it because someone from government said bitcoin should be banned and they are scared now!

in the end when things like this happen, slowly the tide turns. it may start with some smaller things but it will lead to bigger ones eventually.

Who wants S400 to pay with bitcoin?
When will you people learn?
Putin/ Trump/ Queens and Kings they all are just a face, they're the puppets, only the minority with military power are controlling everything.
But let me assure you, bitcoin is strong as it is with the support of individuals around the world.
As long as people willing to pay for it and accept it as a digital currency we don't really need anything else for that matter.
The important thing is that we have seen it and supporting the idea behind it, that's it we just have to wait for everyone else to see and have an experience like us.

It is a big news since the one that will be accepting bitcoin is one of the superpowers in the world. Russia is a big country and is one of the leading economies in the world thus if they will accept bitcoin it will play a major role and a huge impact in the markets value. For sure we will be seeing another price spike one of these days. 2017 really is a great year for bitcoin.

This is good news happening but I personally won't want to go ahead of myself too much even though there is link to the reference for such information. The reason why I won't is because when it comes to such massive adoption that would likely shake the direction of prices, then time is needed for adequate preparation in which several contingencies might even arise at the point of implementation when it comes to the political class.

But once Russian declares that they are accepting means definitely there is a small impact on the price. After Japan, Russian is one of the biggest countries were ready to accept bitcoin as legal in their country. Even they those oppose but surely it will impact on the market.

That's nice that Russia will accept Bitcoins but will it effect the price I doubt, last I heard was that Russia was against Bitcoin, then they decided to regulated it. And now they adopt it, you can't trust these news until they are followed in action. Plus I don't think that Russians have that huge market share that will effect Bitcoins. So I don't see any moment on the Bitcoin front, rather it will remain stable as it be or a small hike. Plus even if Russian do accept it, there will be lot of conditions on it, so would like everyone to be bit cautious about this.

Chronopay don't actually say anything about Bitcoin on their website.  Furthermore, Japan's "adoption" has not happened yet either.  We were promised a lot about "adoption", but we are genuinely talking about one or two individual firms accepting Bitcoin as a secondary option to fiat, and there's no indication that those stores actually get a lot of Bitcoin payments.

The main thing that shows adoption is actual statistics of companies that have accepted Bitcoin and how many of their payments are in Bitcoin.  Until we get that kind of statistic, a company accepting Bitcoin as a secondary/tertiary means of payment is meaningless.

The article is a bit odd, why did he hate Crypto with a passion, but now suddenly without explanation, he likes it?
Increasing market access is always a good thing, real big news would be in countries traded in Bitcoin instead of the petrodollar (yes I read Zerohedge), but I don't see that happening any time soon/ever.

I always thought that Russia was strongly against Bitcoin, it is good to see a new market opening.

Exciting news, after many months of resisting, they are finally ceding. It's all driven by Chronopay. Clients of ChronoPay include high-profile media outlets like the Moscow Times and Kommersant, cellular service providers which operate on a federal level and dozens of leading charitable organizations like WWF, Greenpeace, Tele2 and WWF. This would be very good for bitcoins popularity and trading.  A much needed and welcome development. I suspect the price would receive more bumps in the next few days.

This is nonsense, anything that gives freedom to people is not going to be adopted by "russia". Russia is so stupid and bipolar when it comes to bitcoin, they don't know what to do with it, so they keep changing positions about it.

Not a long time ago they wanted to put bitcoiners in jail:

It's not confirmed and probably not true. I'd expect a number of countries to get interested in Bitcoin, especially countries with weak and unstable currencies, or countries that don't have their own ones and are using various other currencies (usually dollars).
Russia is still very strict about money and they along with China won't support Bitcoin. At least not before the rest of the world.

No doubt rumors and buzzes are biggest price motivator for bitcoin. But its scope is limited to speculators. It hardly contributes directly to increased adoption or so. But yes, if we see indirectly price is one of the biggest attracting force of people towards bitcoin. So hope Russian acceptance will contribute to real increase in btc prices.

Glad to see this change. The founder even admitted to criticizing Bitcoin in the past and now has openly accepted it as their payment method and even as others have said that Chronobank is not a good online payment companies, it is still considered as a reputed brand and this can set as an example for other countries as well who consider bitcoins illegal and bitcoin users criminals. The more countries accepting it, the more it will help its adoption worldwide.

Russia is so stupid
Not a long time ago they wanted to put bitcoiners in jail
Fucking idiots. They don't know bitcoin doesn't care about government opinions.

Quote
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – Tom Larson, Acting United States Attorney for the Western District of Missouri, announced that a Nixa, Mo., man pleaded guilty in federal court today to conducting an illegal money transmitting business by exchanging bitcoin for cash without a license.

Jason R. Klein, 37, of Nixa, waived his right to a grand jury and pleaded guilty before U.S. Magistrate Judge David P. Rush to a federal information that charges him with conducting an unlicensed and unregistered money transmitting business.
...
Between Feb. 6, 2015, and July 27, 2016, Klein, acting with another, met with two undercover federal agents on numerous occasions to exchange bitcoin for cash. Today’s plea agreement cites five separate transactions in which money (ranging from $1,000 to $15,000) was exchanged in person for an electronic transfer of bitcoin. Each of the transactions included a fee that Klein or another person charged the undercover agents, for a total of $2,122 in fees.

Guys, hold your horses, it is true that this is not exactly Russia as a country accepting bitcoin directly, but this is a solid first step.
Bitcoin is not that awesome to take whole world, there is still scaling issue, limit of tx per second.
We must settle for one small step after another, and after some time maybe even PayPal will accept BTC directly.

There is no BTC as "elecronic currencies".

Listed only Webmoney and QIWI.

Nothing about BTC on the site.

WebMoney and now accept bitcoins. Why would they wait for 2018? Why is Putin to accept bitcoin? Russia's economy and so apart. This is probably the last attempt of Putin to attract investment, but she only will finish its economy.

Just hearing in the wires that Russians largest payment processor will be accepting BTC payments imminently. It's already been coded. Go live within days.

Updates to follow...
So what? Russia had bitcoins banned at one point and after getting them to be legal again didn't have any influence on the price of the bitcoin, so I am sure nothing will happen this time again, price explosion would be possible only if something bigger would start adopting it like usa or china.
It is a rapidly spreading phenomenon, and although we all saw it coming, I am still shocked at the way bitcoin is being adopted world wide.  WoW!
Believe me, it is not getting adopted at the pace you think it is, the money that went into bitcoins during the last few weeks were mostly the speculators trying to make money out of it. We still have a long time to wait till worldwide adoption.

Russia?
No.

A payment processor from Russia and not even on of the top 3.
And to make things worse,  ChronoPay is probable the worst of them.

And it's founder and owner ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavel_Vrublevsky

Bitcoin doesn't need this kind of hype anymore.
It's not 2013 to cheer every time a shop accepts bitcoin.

I'll open another beer if I see Putin taking payments for the s400 in bitcoins.



Who wants S400 to pay with bitcoin?
When will you people learn?
Putin/ Trump/ Queens and Kings they all are just a face, they're the puppets, only the minority with military power are controlling everything.
But let me assure you, bitcoin is strong as it is with the support of individuals around the world.
As long as people willing to pay for it and accept it as a digital currency we don't really need anything else for that matter.
The important thing is that we have seen it and supporting the idea behind it, that's it we just have to wait for everyone else to see and have an experience like us.

Because my dear friend who is misunderstanding what a country is and what a business located in a county is..

The moment putin(russia) will get paid for the s400 with bitcoin will be the moment in which RUSSIA accepts bitcoins.

Until then webmoney can use bitcoin, vk cna use bitcoin, lukoil can sell gas for bitcoin, Russian mailbrides can accept bitcoin but it doesn't mean RUSSIA (the country and the goverment) is accepting bitcoins.

wow time to make a good decision whether to sell all the alts and wait for the price to rally up and wait for its ath again before buying those alts back
its a good news for most investors and traders as we see new price up better to keep watching and hold more if possible.

I think it is really yet never too late to buy some bitcoin or shall i say to invest. Yes true that you should make a good decision with regards to this but seling bitcoin right now is for me not a bad decision either yet the best option is to really hold especially that russia has also a huge population and most of them are also open minded when it regards to new tech like btc

Russia is rather poor country so they won't rush into BTC like Korea or Japan.
I belive that russia will have low factor on BTC over time.
Russia sells oil and most people are very poor guys.

The number of people living below the poverty level, $177 per month, jumped from 16 million in 2014 to 20 million last year according to Rosstat.

177$ it what a guy working at mcdonald's earns in 3 days.

Russians overall are poor. That's a fact no matter how you might spin it.

Doesn't mean that they're incapable of contributing to a Bitcoin price rise though.

For one thing, the Bitcoin price is largely speculative, and this will be regarded as a fundamental factor.  Japan's "adoption" was not as extreme as people like to claim it was either, but it contributes to the price because people felt that it was information which would drive the price up.

It's basically a self-fulfilling prophecy, but that's how the Bitcoin price is.

Regardless, you might also want to try quick google search (https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=population+of+russia&oq=population+of+russia&aqs=chrome.0.0l6.2287j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8) to find out the total population of Russia.  There are several Russian billionaires and prominent businessmen/institutional investors, as well as (of course) groups with somewhat average wealth. 

Such a small percentage of people in the Western world are actually involved in Bitcoin that belittling another country is meaningless.  If to you it's only about money, then maybe you should consider how little money it would actually require to shift the price up.

This is nonsense, anything that gives freedom to people is not going to be adopted by "russia". Russia is so stupid and bipolar when it comes to bitcoin, they don't know what to do with it, so they keep changing positions about it.

Not a long time ago they wanted to put bitcoiners in jail:

Fucking idiots. They don't know bitcoin doesn't care about government opinions.



BBZ may be a tad harsh, but I think he is reading the Russian mentality (at least the Russian GOVERNMENT mentality) correctly.  Were I a Russian there, I would be very careful with BTC.  Too much freedom and all.

A credit card from Germany (etc.) and a VPN might be very helpful.  Many Russians are scary-smart.  It's their government that's not.

That is a great news that Russia is going to adopt bitcoin for their payment processor and with that I know that the price will once again start to increase very higher. Now one by one every country will know that how beneficial bitcoin is and they will adopt t for their benefits and so bitcoin will run to high faster in price.

If indeed this news is true, it is possible to boost the price of bitcoin,
Maybe it's time to stock as much bitcoin.

I don't think this will be easy, Russia is very stringent about online transactions and where money is coming/going from. Even to withdraw from online Russian wallets are a nightmare.
