Today (11.10.2017) it was announced that all mining activities and emission of cryptocurrencies will be regulated in Russia. What will be practical implications? We are planning to do an ICO via a company in Estonia, however, most of the team is based in Russia.
I have heard that Russia is going to legalize bitcoin in the next year. If this news is right then it is also a positive sign for bitcoin success, because when big countries accept and regularize bitcoin as their legal currency then all the other counties will also accept, legalize and regularize bitcoin in their respective countries, and one day all the people around the world will accept and use bitcoin.
