Russia Might Enforce Ban on Bitcoin Mining in Residential Places

The relationship between Russia and cryptocurrency continues to evolve in different manners. It appears there is now a proposal on the table to ban Bitcoin mining in residential areas. Assuming there is any truth to this concept, things aren’t looking great for cryptocurrency miners in the country. Any apartment or flat housing a Bitcoin mining operation would be in violation of this new law. Due to the mounting electricity consumption and rising temperatures, a physical hazard is created by miners. A bit of a strange reasoning, although it also makes sense.
