What is the real stand of Russia about Bitcoin? Are they faking their really stand about it or are Russian authorities really are just divided about Bitcoin? How can we deal about this 'lawmaker' who is badmouthing bitcoin?

Bitcoin is not yet big enough to take Russia a stand. They are definitely watching it, but a 4 billion dollar economy is too small for a country like Brazil/Russia/India/China to have a real stand. |

For such a tiny thing, there's been a lot of noise from politicians, central banks and economists. While the general public is still pretty oblivious, those pulling the strings can see serious potential looming on the horizon. |

These guys seem to have two-sided tongue, as mentioned in the article itself.
Once they decide to keep it, the next moment they decide to throw it off.
So, it doesn't affect anyone whether they are interested in BTC anymore or not, people will use Bitcoins for sure, that's the power of cryptocurrencies.

Why do we care what one politician in Russia thinks of Bitcoin? Their opinion won't change anything...so let's not bring any press to it.

This is soooooooo easily explained. It's called they have their own currency in place:  I mean, which would you rather have? Bitcoin or Putincoin...  |

The relationship of USA and Russia should have some effect on this policy. It will be interesting to follow.

You can't do anything about lawmakers badmouthing anything, that's what politicians do. Hopefully the public is smart enough to know it isn't true.
They restrict and make laws that kill businesses. It can fall on any sector and at any time. |

I have seen the same theories here on this forum, some people are just nuts, it is as simple as that. It is 100% nuts to think Bitcoin is CIA, when so many of us know it was created by the NSA.  Great job "Satoshi"... |

Russia's stand is pretty explainable. They see Bitcoin as a threat for their fragile economic situation... So they're trying to diss it. Also, in Russia you don't buy coins, coins buy you...  |

Ask yourself OP: Do you think Putin has any deep understand of Bitcoin beyond "internet magic money?" He is another clueless ego boosted ruler of a nation that has no notions on any of this. A lost cause. Let them be. |

No, I don't think so, Just look at these communist countries like Vietnam, China, they all banned Bitcoin,officially or unofficially. Russia is communist country once and have red regime in her blood, so Russia won't be left behind.
Anyway, it doesn't even sound like Putin.

In general, I think that these conferences are made only to cash in on ticket service. None of these "speakers" are involved in the life of the Bitcoin: here on the forum or at github or somewhere else... |

Russia is a country with a lot of secrets. So do not be surprised if they do that to Bitcoin. I just cant believe how illiterate this lawmaker is. |

Politicians like to buy low, just like everybody else.
Unlike most other people, they have more options when it comes to creating news that lowers their entry point.
