Hi guys, yesterday I saw a notice: Russia’s leadership has made it clear in recent months that they plan to wrangle blockchain technology and cryptocurrency under government control.
Russia was moving forward on plans to launch their own virtual currency.
Moiseev says there will be a lot of discussions as the legislation gets ready to be adopted. Russia’s finance ministry and central bank are said to be collaborating on the framework.
He told one outlet that cryptocurrency mining will be taxed, but the ministry is not planning on introducing licensing for mining.
Show me your thoughts, please, as this may affect everyone, if put into practice.
