The Russian State Duma has passed two significant bills in their third reading: "On Mining" and "On the Experimental Legal Regime" (ELR). The next step is the President’s signature and official publication, according to <a href="https://ultramining.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ultramining</a>.
The "On Mining" bill introduces several key regulations:
1. Ban on Cryptocurrency Advertising: Advertising digital currencies is now prohibited.
2. Restricted Circulation: While a complete ban on cryptocurrency circulation was excluded, the bill still limits it to a predetermined group of individuals.
These restrictions primarily affect Bitcoin advertising and exchange services within <a href="https://ultramining.com/news/en/russia-s-energy-ministry-charges-forward-to-legalize-crypto-mining/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Russia</a>. Notably, centralized cryptocurrencies like USDT are not subject to these bans according to the Central Bank of Russia.
Currently, there are no fines for violating these bans. Despite a 3.5-year-old ban on digital currency payments, no penalties have been established yet.
Other key provisions include:
3. Official Definition and Registration for Miners: Miners must register and provide mandatory reporting. The miner registry will begin on November 1, 2024.
4. Use of Digital Currency in Foreign Trade: An experimental phase will allow the use of digital currency in foreign trade contracts.
5. Bitcoin on Moscow Exchange: Bitcoin may be listed as a commodity on the Moscow Exchange as part of the experiment.
6. Anti-Money Laundering Compliance: Miners and participants in the experiment must comply with anti-money laundering laws.
Both bills will take effect on September 1, 2024. More detailed information on these changes will be published gradually.
