But I would request everyone, not to believe a Communist government because things can become very different that it looks like. There could be a huge difference between what they are saying now and what they have planned for the future.

Nothing changed. The Central Bank wants to neutralize cryptocurrencies in Russia as much as possible by banning banks, commercial organizations, etc. And the Ministry of Finance wants to regulate this area. But there is no result yet. It is not even clear what taxes will have to be paid.

Just do not write more about the Communist government, this is complete nonsense.

Fuck! That article tells a completely different story from the OP. There has been no progress and what the Bank of Russia wants is to ban and ban.

What I liked about what was said in the OP is the limit below which you didn't have to declare. The problem we are facing around the world is that in the vast majority of countries Bitcoin has been regulated analogously to some stocks or mutual funds. So, if you go and pay for a coffee with Bitcoin, you would have to declare that as a partial sale of your holdings. Setting a limit below which it cannot be declared avoids the problem and helps it to become an everyday currency.

But well, it looks like Russia is going the other way now.

Most people in Russia are tired of this situation. While the Central Bank and the Ministry of Finance are arguing about the bill and making their proposals, the owners of cryptocurrencies do not need to pay taxes and receive additional problems. Time is our ally, thanks to the lack of regulation in Russia, about 20 million people are already using, studying, investing in cryptocurrencies.
