Russia: first in space, first on the cryptocurrency market!

While the rest of the world is trying to ban or control cryptocurrency, Russia made a statement about releasing its own cryptocurrency in just a few months! The new currency will be called "cryptoruble"
Minister of Communications Nikolay Nikiforov had a closed meeting with Vladimir Putin about this decision. The Russian cryptoruble can always be exchanged to real money, all the profits people make off of this cryptocurrency will be taxed at 13 % (which is too much, if you ask me). The currency cannot be mined, it will be issued by the government. These terms, of course, can change. The only certainty is that Russia wants to be the first government to issue its own cryptocurrency officially, instead of avoiding the new economic reality like the rest of the world does.
