I am sure that cryptocurrency in Russia sooner or later will be banned or limited in use. At the moment, even if the use of cryptocurrency were prohibited, it will be difficult to track users, so it makes no sense to introduce this law now.
How can you be sure of that? are you from Russia and you are aware of the talks and updates that's happening there for bitcoin? The news about criminalizing or banning bitcoin in some countries has always been a rumor.
For example in China, it's been said that ICOs were the ones that has been banned on their country and bitcoin too. But look, they have the biggest share of hashrate for bitcoin. As long as there's no verified and official statement from the Russian government, take all of it as a rumor.
What will people gets for posting fake news or speculating events, people when posting here should post official statement or official source we need facts here people are making a huge mistakes believing these fake news and in the end making a wrong decision about their investment and trade, we should always go for facts.
it can be a job for some to mislead people and earn few bucks . when people got tricked they can sell or buy and it has an impact on the market .
what we have here or what the op share has a source or a link , so this shouldnt be a made up story only. its still up to the people , some believe without proving while some dont easily fall from what they hear or see .
