In <a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/russia-s-energy-ministry-charges-forward-to-legalize-crypto-mining/">Russia</a>, the State Duma's journey towards regulating digital currencies hangs in the balance. Despite plans to pass a comprehensive bill by the end of 2023, Alexei Guznov, the deputy chairman of the Bank of Russia, reveals a stalemate. The crux of the issue lies in the cross-border use of cryptocurrencies, with opinions divided among key agencies, according to <a href="https://coinspot.io/law/russia_sng/centrobank-priznal-chto-vlastyam-tak-i-ne-udalos-soglasovat-zakonoproekt-o-kriptovalyutah/">Coinspot</a>. 
The government eyes cryptocurrencies as a tool to sidestep Western sanctions. Yet, the Central Bank raises alarms over potential risks, fearing inadequate control over virtual currency transactions. Guznov hopes for a breakthrough next year, envisioning a consensus among the State Duma, government, and Central Bank. 
Interestingly, even the experimental legal regime hasn't successfully legalized businesses in the digital asset market. This ongoing saga in Russian financial legislation showcases the complex intersection of traditional banking systems, emerging digital currencies, and geopolitical influences.
