Okay so months ago, we thought that they're all set to lay down the axe on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in Russia. But right now, lawmakers have passed a bill to legalize cryptocurrencies in their country.
However, there's one section of the bill states that Bitcoin cannot be used as payment method. They do legalize cryptocurrency trading though, but not sure when it comes to crowdfunding, ICOs, etc.

If it does i think this is good news for crypto lovers and i think gradually they will open all sections of cryptocurrency as US bank make custody BTC service. I think like US govt, worlds all best economic countries will gradually accept this as they realize the acceptance of digital currency in this pandemic situation. On the other hand there is also a pressure from crypto users to government. So finally i will say we are in little far from globally acceptance of crypto.
thanks.
