Such as Russia, Vietnam and very very maybe China. I wonder whether some Russian fellow coould translate the original propose to english so we could see how bad it is.

if your russian and in fear. dont worry.
just register as money transmitter business..
stop getting scared and spreading fud from a media outlet who quotes a media outlet who quotes "someone". read the source material.
its only illegal if your using it for guns, drugs porn etc. (no matter what currency it is)
its only illegal to create and exchange funds if your not a money transmitter.(no matter what currency it is) the new rules are just expanding on the money transmitter laws to include bitcoin..
even exchanging 'payment cards' (pre-paid debit cards) is illegal without a money transmitter registration. so its not saying bitcoin is bad, its not saying visa debitcards are bad. its not even saying running a westernunion style business is bad.. but if you are not registered. then expect a fine if your an individual and expect a fine, ifyou a large corporation then expect big fine or jail time.
so register as a money transmitter.
and relax you wont be fined just for using bitcoin to buy a coffee

>so register as a money transmitter. You're not OK, are you? >you wont be fined just for using bitcoin to buy a coffee But you will for being a business accepting Bitcoin, e.g. selling coffee. Even if you do find a coffee shop stupid enough to risk fines & jail by accepting BTC, buying coffee with Bitcoin is a thing of the past, welcome to paying tx fees. P.S. Oh, now I remember you ^^ Source material (below) is in 100% agreement with clickbait. @naidray: Ignore franky, he knows nothing, just likes to post. waffle from clickbait sites
so you want to use clickbait as your evidence.. again.. dont give coindesk links or forklog links.. and give the Lenta.ru or even a government news link which meant to be the source of a guy that just arrived in his job 1 month ago, who has not even made a draft himself, or any amendments (as they wont be done before february 20th) so show me the quote on Lenta.ru which all the clickbait crypto sites have copy and pasted but not directly linkedplease show the source, not the mis-interpretted and twisted comment out of context on the clickbait sites.. the actual source please http://forklog.net/putins-internet-counselor-accepting-bitcoin-is-a-crime/http://themerkle.com/news/putins-adviser/Please tell me why you feel that not mainstream press, but BITCOIN PRESS is spreading such horrible disinformation, and YOU, Google Translate wizard, are *the only fricking one* who should be trusted? Can you contact these lying statist fiatmongers and tell them to staph?
Update: found the the special sauce ... Ahahahaha! Here you go, Friend He does, he does say the very words, right here http://lenta.ru/video/2016/02/05/klimenko/See the word биткoины? That's Bitcoins, in Cyrillics. Please ignore the ignorant goof, he trolled me into finding this bullshit, don't let him waste your time

Even if you do find a coffee shop stupid enough to risk fines & jail by accepting BTC, buying coffee with Bitcoin is a thing of the past, welcome to paying tx fees. have you even read the actual draft? its been a month.. or are you still stuck just reading the date?? by the way selling coffee is not the same as being western union. selling coffee is not the same as the blackmarket sell of prepaid debit cards holding dollars selling coffee is not the same as being a 'bureau de change' (currency exchange) please i beg of you stop reading the news and read the actual source documents. i thought after a month you would have tried to, even as an intention to find some valuable sentance in the real document that debunks mine. but instead all you can quote is a media, quoting a media, quoting a media. where even the video you tried to use as your source seen the guy actually talk about bitcoin positively. and all you could do is point to the caption saying look here is the word bitcoin.. and thats it. no transcript of him saying holding bitcoin is illegal. no transcript of him being completely negative about it. i even told you what he said, because he was joking saying "went to an ATM, withdrew some bank notes and put 5000 rubles into his pocket. that no one, not even NATO can trace those bank notes. but with bitcoin every transaction is locked into history" also if you knew russian you would know he is saying "electronic money like bitcoin is very interesting," so please try to read the source. it will help you out. really. it would in short the video is not a "dont do bitcoins" style of video. so it holds no substance to be used as a debunk. th actual draft documents talk about people not registering data will get a civil fine if individual/small business.. or if large institution doing illegal stuff then expect largest fine or prison. again please read th source material not the dramaqueen script media produces

This news item hasn't been picked up by any major news agency, and so I am inclined to agree with Franky1. If things were indeed so drastic, I don't see any international agency passing the chance to sully the image of Russia.

Every week we have different news about bitcoin law development on Russia, some weeks says that laws will allow bitcoin, some weeks says that bitcoin users will have 4 years of prison. I think that Russian government needs to clarify witch is its position about bitcoin. And newspapers need to wait for official news, not writing about rumors.
Yes to everything. Seems like FUD from cryptonews and Russia should clarify where it stands. If they are going this direction then that is sad as bitcoin will be good for the globe.

I do not know what to believe when it comes to Russia, the jump from one extreme to the next, when it comes to Bitcoin. The amount of FUD being spread about Bitcoin is becoming insane. You need at least
7 different sources to confirm anything coming out of Russia, before you can believe anything. The one moment it is banned and the next moment they embrace the technology and want to implement it
everywhere. Let's wait for the other 6 sources to confirm this, before we believe or confirm it.

Perhaps it's a language problem, so I'll explain: Jackbooted thugs may embrace chemistry blockchain, the technology behind meth labs Bitcoin, without embracing meth labs themselves Bitcoin itself. Hope I've clarified things a bit

ok ill spoonfeed you, people that are unregistered as money transmitters (selling prepaid debit cards on the blackmarket, loansharks, counterfeiters, etc) will get punished by http://www.zakonrf.info/uk/187/1. The manufacture, purchase, storage, transportation for use or sale, as well as the sale of counterfeit payment cards, orders for transfer of funds, documents or means of payment (except as provided for in Article 186 of this Code), as well as electronic means, electronic media, technical devices, computer programs intended for misuse of the admission, extradition, transfer of funds -
shall be punished by hard labor for a term not exceeding five years, or imprisonment for up to six years with a fine in the amount of one hundred thousand to three hundred thousand rubles or the salary or other income for a period of one to two years.
2. The same acts, committed by an organized group, -
shall be punished by hard labor for a term not exceeding five years, or imprisonment for up to seven years with a fine of up to one million rubles or the salary or other income for a period of up to five years or without it.
a law created far before bitcoins invention, for the purpose of slapping people for not being registered money transmitters. which the new proposal is that the new punishments should be higher for large corporations/institutions. in the form of millions of rubles or 7 years in prison for unregistered money transmitters(exchangers).. but actually smaller for individuals in the form of a civil fine for unregistered money transmitters( individual exchangers). now here is the draft document to the entire other aspect of bitcoin regulation dumaand here is some translations important things if you are (hopefully) translating from the source is the stuff like "simplified identification" and "statement of persons" as this refers to REGISTERING ok ill use google and then translate from computer to real english draft bill 1. Issuance of money surrogates without statement of person or persons performing such issuanse, and/or should such issuance is not provided for in the legal codes of the Russian Federation, or is performed in violation of procedures established under the legislation of the Russian Federation,
if not registered as a money businesss, under the rules of the russian federation in case such activity incorporates no criminally punishable acts invoke administrative penalty to the tune of
you wont get a prison sentance but instead a fine of... twenty thousand to forty thousand rubles along with confiscation of the administrative violation item for citizens;
$250/£175 to $500/£350 if you are an individual exchanger fifty thousand to seventy thousand rubles along with confiscation of the administrative violation item for entrepreneurs; £450 to £630 if you are a small business exchanger and it goes on and on but here is parts people gloss over
Note. The following actions are not deemed administrative violations subject to punishment provided herein: 1) usage of assets subject to being classified as money surrogates by a person being identified or being under the process of simplified identification. [/b][/size] its worth reading the source documentation. sometimes best to read it in a quiet space where you got time to take in the information and maybe even read it a few times incase you skip critical parts all that is essentially changing is the punishment for being unregistered

Are you a registered money transmitter? Do you understand what is involved in becoming a money transmitter? No idea what's involved in Russia, but here, in the States, it begins with: Regulation Forty-eight US states regulate money transmitters although the laws vary from one state to the other.[4] Most of the states[5] require a surety bond with widely ranging amounts from as little as $25,000 to over $1 million and maintaining a minimum capital requirement.
-- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_transmitterSomething tells me that people are not going to put down $1 million, or even $25k, for the privilege of using Bitcoin, but that's just me. No. That's the OLD proposed penalties, Franky. Those aren't news. The news is that The Russian Finance Ministry has reportedly tightened its proposed penalties for the issuance of so-called money surrogates including digital currencies.
-- http://www.coindesk.com/report-russia-to-propose-7-year-prison-sentences-for-digital-currency-issuers/If your claim held any water, the headline would read "BREAKING: Russian Finance Ministry tightened did absolutely nothing about the penalties it proposed last January. More news about shit that didn't change at 11."But kudos for drawing me in.

No. That's the OLD proposed penalties, Franky. Those aren't news. The news is that
no, coindesk is paraphrasing another media outlet Interfax, who supposedly spoke to "someone" close to the minfin. who proposes to make the punishments for code 187 even stricter. it does not say that its law. and yes i showed the old code which was just a labour camp for 1-2 years. but in th last month there have been several IDEA's of new punishment. but the punishments are irrelevant to your rhetoric. because it applies to money transmitters.. not money users. EG exchanges NOT coffee shops. basically if you own a coffee shape you are ok, but if your a localbitcoins trader going over the threshold that classes you as a money transmitter business (rather than small swaps as a hobby). then you need to register as such. even in american law you are not classed as a money transmitter if your just doing occassional small swaps. but if your doing it for larger amounts and professionally. then you become a money transmitter. its the same for russia and europe and even china. basically most developed countries, but anyway your in america so relax

Franky, not sure why you rage so much about my Russian. I was born & brought up in Russia. Most people born in Russia learn Russian, doesn't even require smarts. When same people move to US, they learn English. As far as being emotional? Not really. Somewhat concerned that someone might be stupid enough to take you seriously & end up getting secsed up da butt in some gulag. I concede tho, that's pretty unlikely. Because who takes you seriously, amirite? P.S. Why are all the Bitcoin news outlets trolling us like that? Have they all been compromised? They got IR lock on us, Franky! Soon there'll be no place for us Bitcoiners to hide
