Cryptocurrencies will have a special status, which has never appeared in Russian legislation before, and will be regulated on the basis of laws and regulations that will be issued by the Russian Central Bank. The Central Bank will issue licenses for exchange operations. In this regard, the status of crypto owners will be notably facilitated in comparison to securities owners.

You make it sound as if it has already passed, in all honesty what are the odds of this being passed through and becoming legal? That's what I want to know. (Not that it changes much for me since I am American but the more Global Acceptance the better)

Russia flip flops on crypto regulation every other month. I wouldn't rely on anything until it's passed into law, signed by Putin himself. This is just a proposed bill.

It affects us in the sense that geopolitical powers are competing against one another. As I see it, favorable legislation from one superpower is good, because hard-headed anti-crypto legislation from others would only put that superpower's industries (crypto and finance) at an advantage. That's irrational.
