Russia to Introduce Legal Framework for Cryptocurrency Trade with Countries



Legalization of cryptocurrencies imminent in sanction hit Russia.
Speaking in an interview on Russia 24 TV channel, Russian Deputy Minister of Finance Alexei Moiseev said both the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Russia are re-evaluating their approach to crypto regulation. Russian news outlet TASS reported that the minister said regulation to legalize cryptocurrencies will be introduced soon.
With Russia slapped with Western sanctions, they are looking to conduct trade in non-US dollar currencies. The government believes making cryptocurrency transactions legal is an important step in their plan to build a non-US dollar infrastructure to circumvent sanctions.
Given current market conditions “It (trading in other currencies) is impossible to do without cross-border settlements in cryptocurrency,” --- Russian Deputy Minister of Finance Alexei Moiseev.
Back in February, Russia announced they will draft legislation to recognize cryptocurrency as an “analogue of currencies.” That announcement come a month after the central bank said it was considering a ban on crypto due to financial stability concerns. In April, Binance moved to limit its services to Russian nationals following EU sanctions.
Moiseev recognized the need to balance the legalization of crypto while maintaining tight control on the use of crypto for illegal uses, saying:
“The infrastructure that we plan to create is too rigid for the use of cryptocurrencies in cross-border settlements, which, of course, we must first of all legalize somehow. On the one hand, give people the opportunity to do it, on the other hand, put it under control so that there is no laundering, paying for drugs, and so on," Moiseev said.

Taurus offers a range of services, including custody, tokenization, and trading of digital assets. Taurus recently secured $65 million in funding through a round led by Credit Suisse and Deutsche Bank in February, highlighting the growing interest from traditional financial institutions in blockchain technology and tokenization.
Tokenization, the process of representing an asset as tradable units in a digital format, is increasingly drawing the attention of mainstream financial institutions.
Taurus emphasized that most Tier 1 financial institutions are entering the tokenization space and seeking a blockchain-agnostic and token-agnostic infrastructure. Additionally, Bank of America published a report last April stating that the tokenized gold market had surpassed $1 billion the previous month.
Polygon aims to evolve into an "internet of blockchains," connecting various Ethereum-compatible networks while continuing to enhance transaction efficiency and speed.
As blockchain technology adoption accelerates, collaborations between established major institutions and Polygon continues. In addition to the recent collaboration Polygon has also partnered with Franklin Templeton, Google Cloud, and Deutsche Telekom in recent months.
Polygon ($MATIC) is trading at $0.9, up 0.4% in 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap.
What is Polygon:
Polygon is a “sidechain” scaling solution that runs alongside the Ethereum blockchain — allowing for speedy transactions and low fees. MATIC is the network’s native cryptocurrency, which is used for fees, staking, and more. The effectiveness of Polygon as an alternative to Ethereum has seen existing projects such as Aave and Curve adopting its chain.
