I find this really weird. How in the world did the country's ministry of finance came up with these three uses? I am a bit interested to know the process or study by which they determined that Bitcoin and crypto transactions are best limited to these areas. I bet this is another case of implementing Bitcoin and crypto-related policies without understanding Bitcoin and crypto first.

If they wanted to ban anything to do with them except possessing for current holders, this is what they could do.

The information you provide is misleading, you are not quoting the good side, you are only quoting the bad information.

The measures are considered contradictory in view of the fact that cryptocurrencies are based precisely on mining. In this regard, Dmitry Sakharov, CEO of the Moscow Digital School, stated that the situation is complex and it is not clear how the miners would receive the incentives.

Speculation about it has not been long in coming. It is presumed that Russian miners will continue to mine cryptocurrencies but bitcoins will become controlled through government wallets.

You see the black label that's the answer to all of that, the news you give.
OP, currently crypto in Russia looks very good from and miners, investors, investments etc. really enjoy it.

OP, this problem is still the pros and cons, what you need to know in Russia is that 70% of the people use digital / crypto currencies like Bitcoin, the rest don't know about crypto.

So, stop spreading unclear news, in the future if there is news about crypto in Russia, wait for an official decision from the government, then the OP will bring it to this Forum.

Being only allowed to transact using a government wallet (lol) is as dark a scenario as it gets.
