I do agree that it shouldn't really be a shocking result, after all we are talking about ruble needing to get better and bigger, which could be done via the fact that Russians asking everyone to use ruble. This could be for main things like oil and gas, but it could be done for everything.
This would make ruble a lot more stable and a lot more liked by people as well. I am not guessing that it would be a bad result if they ignored crypto all together and focused on just ruble itself. Which is a proof that they do have a chance other than ruble when working. By the looks of it, ruble is not getting any worse neither, so it shouldn't really matter to them.
To be honest I don't think they want a rouble to be better and bigger. I think they just want to keep a control to manipulate with it as much as they can. As for nowadays when foreign currencies exchange is made harder and is not available for most Russian residents the rate can be any — trading volume in pairs with USD and EUR is down ten times.
