Mining in Russia

The CBR is prepared to allow mining, ICO and digital tokens. About it writes portal Banki.ru with reference to the first Deputy Chairman of the Agency Olga Skorobogatova.

"Mining we have evaluated and believe that it is an activity that should be conducted under clear legal rules. Mining in Russia, we expect to resolve," she said, adding that the enterprises which will be engaged in the mining of cryptocurrencies, must present the same requirements, including the issue of tax monitoring and reporting, and other legal entities.

"The question of how miners that Nominet should at least exchange remains open," — said Skorobogatova.

According to her, the cryptocurrency from the point of view of investments "carries huge risks at the macroeconomic level, the population and business", so the Bank will occupy a balanced position in this issue on the basis of enable the exchange of digital currencies on the territory of the Russian Federation at present is very risky.
