rumours about legalisation of bitcoins in Russia have been circulating since 2015

2017-2018 I'm 100% nothing will change in terms of russian legislation regarding bitcoins
many will depend on how bitcoin adoption is going around the world:if Japan,India,China and other countries regulate bitcoin
Russia will follow,not vice versa though
