  4. From September 1st, Russia is set to begin piloting cross-border payments with cryptocurrencies. This move is to evade international sanctions and address payment hurdles faced by the country. The trials will include digital tokens and crypto exchanges, which will drastically change Russia’s financial approach.

    Russian Parliament Approves New Laws

    In July, the Russian parliament approved laws allowing crypto mining and establishing a legal framework for testing tokenized assets. Vladimir Putin approved these bills on August 8th, paving the way for this new financial venture. The National Payment Card System, controlled by the central bank, will conduct the trials to optimize a controlled environment using a known system for these tests.

    Russia’s Central Bank Backs Crypto Trials

    According to Finance Minister Anton Siluanov, the government plans to legalize crypto exchanges, though no definite roadmap has been developed yet. The central bank, which has previously been hostile to cryptocurrencies, is now playing a key role in this change. This marks a significant shift in the Russian stance on crypto as the country aims to legalize exchanges. The central bank suggested completely outlawing cryptocurrencies in January 2022, but economic constraints due to sanctions have forced a policy change.

    Russian Exchanges Could Launch Crypto Trading by 2024

    If the trials are positive, the Moscow Exchange and St. Petersburg Currency Exchange plan to offer cryptocurrency trading platforms in 2024. These exchanges will be vital in enhancing the application of cryptocurrency for cross-border transactions. Their success could make the Russian financial system more receptive to cryptocurrencies. Russia’s decision to allow the use of cryptocurrency is a tactical response to economic pressures, helping to avoid conventional financial systems vulnerable to international sanctions.

    The trials will include digital tokens and crypto exchanges, which will drastically change Russia’s financial approach.

    Russia’s decision to conduct cryptocurrency trials is a strategic move in response to economic sanctions and pressures. The success of these trials could lead to significant changes in the country’s financial system.
