Article from scratch. The usual newspaper canard. Some day some decisions will be made, but currently it is talk for no special reasons.

[DreamCayman]

According to my observations, on articles on the Internet I draw a conclusion and I can say differently: Russia is not set up aggressively with respect to cryptography. There are prerequisites for the fact that Russia will soon introduce a law permitting the use of the platforms of the crypto industry.

Don't take seriously any news coming from Russia specially crypto. And what do you expect from their government? Of course, they will all penalized crimes including those committed using crypto, so I wouldn't be surprised.

And to add to that, they always contradict themselves, that's why I don't see them being friendly to crypto, the best case than we can expect is that they will always be in the gray zone, and the worst? banning crypto in any form.

It’s true so many countries are against this market but i believe in near future all countries are accept this currency.

Russia have still kept open source cryptos legal and they are trying to implement the rules in case of criminal activities which are done through cryptos. So, I honestly see no harm in that, rather it is best for us if criminal activities are removed soon from this crypto space because in the long run this is going to tarnish the reputation of the community.

It is true that Russia is allowing only few currencies to go through their system whereas all the other cryptos are getting blocked. But, a small step is far better than adopting it all at once. So, I still have hope that eventually in the future the government wil allow other cryptos too once they are proved to safe.

just another click bait article written by some new website calling itself "news site". there is not much to it, apart from some text for them to put up and then advertise on bitcointalk to get readers and earn money from the traffic.

Russia like any other country has laws, these laws prevent criminal activities whether you use fiat, bitcoin, chickens, or anything else as your medium of exchange. they aren't criminalizing anything and the article has no proof of the things it says.

The crypto space being unregulated has made a lot of problem for the government and security forces. It has become a problem to identify the criminals, who are running away with people's money from the crypto space. Having no regulation at all will only encourage the incidents to occur. Slowly, Russia can water down their regulations though.

[SwampRose]

Well, currently this news is not confirmed and I do not think that might take place in reality because we all know that crypto currency is basically run through a decentralized system. Now if any country wants to take some action regarding its operation there can be a good side as well as a bad sign for the peoples of that country.

[BattleHippo]

As of now, this news isn't affirmed and I don't believe that may occur actually in light of the fact that we as a whole realize that digital money is essentially gone through a decentralized framework. Presently if any nation needs to make some move in regards to its task there can be a decent side and an awful sign for the people groups of that nation.

No need to be worried. It is just the security issue of a nation. Some of criminals doint bad with bitcoin, so govt trying to seperate. Always rember it is a decentralized market place.

Regulation is not bad, kinda has to happen if you want mainstream adoption.

[kryptqnick]

Banning some things and allowing others is what regulation is about. Yet these kinds of news about allowing certain coins and banning others or allowing trading but banning mining are more of a FUD, than anything real. Till this day, there are no straighforward crypto regulations is Russia, so people can mine and trade without being prosecuted. Some project laws are starting to appear, but banks and Ministry of Finances disagree on some matters radically, so we'll probably see no significant changes in the following years.

[Everglow]

Yes, it because why we need a legal compliance ICO. USA and China have the strictly regulation about ICO activities, and it'll help to protect investors.

[wsca]

The problem will be solved very soon I believe. Because crypto market is the largest market where many investors and others are depending on it and beside this it is so much popular around the world.

[glaccief]

I don’t know what actually happened in Russia but if it is true, then it’s a bad news for crypto society. I don’t know may be they will ban crypto from Russia.

[89shaky]

While they come to a final decision, it will take a very long time. Both Russia and Ukraine are constantly talking about some laws, but so far nothing concrete is done

[bitcoinminer566]

From my view there could different consequences. They are trying to filtering the crypto coins which is not bad at all. But if they are planning to centralize the cryptocurrency then it will be really bad.

Most of the time these kind of news will end as the rumors so no need to discuss about these until you get the official statement from the respective governments.Or else it will create FUDs among the investors causes dump in the market again.
