A few hours ago Binance, the largest exchange platform has been blacklisted by Roskomnadzor (Russian telecom regulator) on the grounds that the exchange is "disseminating prohibited information".
However, this restriction does not lawfully prohibit Russians from accessing Binance so everything for now acts as normal.
So far it has been tentatively speculated that this decision has got nothing to do with Bianance's plan to launch a 'crypto debit card' in Russia.
In fact, very little is know as to what was the real cause of this measure. To read more about this story, click here.
To this extent the real reasons behind this remain unknown. Is this a new attempt to cripple blockchain and its descendant coins?
What are your thoughts?
Russian government as i believe is not against crypto so why would they harassed the exchange in performing their job to let people trade ?
That seems like a temporary blacklist for me. Hopefully it get resolved as soon as possible.
yeah maybe there are some things that binance need to prove and pass for them to be taken from black lists.
