lol, BITCOIN BANNED IN RUSSIA IN 1917

Yeah... and Satoshi was declared as an enemy of the labourers and the proletariat. He was sent to the gulag.

That was Satoshi's child which was sent from 2016 to correct the law but failed.

There are some people with too much time on their hands. Why didn't he digged deeper ? Maybe there is a law from 1914 in which is stated all the laws from 1917 are to be taken as a prank.

Two russian entities or person when transferring some goods or services can use roubles only on territory of Russian Federation.
Of course, if a russian pays some foreign counterparty, he's free to choose what currency to use.

“The right to the free exchange of currencies is a fundamental element of capitalism,” said Moscow-based economics analyst Igor Suzdaltsev. “It allows citizens to leave the country when a dictatorship is imposed by selling their property and exchanging their assets for the necessary currency.”

Why was it banned then?

It will not prevent ordinary Russian people to save hard earned money in Dollars to protect it against devaluation, hide the Dollar notes (while wealthy Russians already do that abroad) and hoping they can redeem them in future - or - they will figure out that there is a much better way to do that in a virtual currency.

Good point.

Treating Bitcoin as money and applying this old law puts it on par with the Dollar.

Can't have it both ways.
