I hope this isn't fake news and it turns out true. Russia is very big populated country. There are many people in our russian local forums too. I hope they will legalize it and regulate icos so we may see trustable altcoins from Russia.
right were tired of fake news even it positive and negative,market are reacting too fast when some issues thrown to bitcoins,most are negative but some is like this positive.if russian government finally accept bitcoin as legal currency and can be used nationwide like japan,well this must be the start of mooning so lets continue updated about this one.coz maybe this is the end of our waiting
It is not a fake news as you can see the remarks on that matter by the current Russian leader on google. They said that they are going to legalize crypto coins in their country so that people of Russia can more conveniently use bitcoin and other altcoins in their state. They said that crypt is the future of economy and the future of rich with digital era.
In that case we can say that the price of it will boost just like at the time when Japan legalized bitcoin in their country.
There is no talk about using crypto as official payment system.
1) ICO as crowdfunding event.
2) Taxes on crypto mining to fill budget.
