Updated Law ‘On Digital Currency’ Filed With Russian Government

Certain provisions in the bill have been clarified, the Finance Ministry said, including those related to the regulation of crypto mining. While the use of bitcoin in payments has been met with opposition, most notably from the Central Bank of Russia and most recently from Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, many Russian officials have backed the idea to recognize mining as an economic activity.

In late March, the Ministry of Energy called for urgent legalization of mining and introduction of regional energy quotas for bitcoin farms.
