Hello, all! Yes, we have really received a warrant from the Russian web regulator Roskomnadzor stating that our lottery service breaks the Russian law as there’s a state monopoly on lotteries. The thing is that we actually don’t surpass any laws in Russia as Bitcoin’s still not considered as a currency, nor as a commodity by the countries law. Thus, we’ve decided to restrict access of Russian-based IPs to our web-page. At the same time our legal team has sent an answer to this warrant explaining our position. Though still no feedback received from the authorities (they have 30 calendar days for it). Yet we consider our position strong and look forward to the further development of this dialogue up to a lawsuit against the state agency. Still we hope that a simple VPN can solve such problems for TrueFlip loyal users.
Topic: [2017-06-03]Blockchain Startup TrueFlip Banned in Russia (Read 5429 times)
explains the ban was caused by lottery-related nature of the service. Lottery activities are banned across the entire Russia, save a few specifically designated locations.
It's a lottery, so the reason behind ban is not related to blockchain. I've recently read that Putin is supporting Ether, so they are not against cryptos.
It's not a big deal if all lotteries are banned in Russia, the blockchain lottery couldn't simply have flown under the radar.

I think they banned thisprojeckt not couse of crypto currency base, but cause of it is lottery site. As I know gambling organisations are forbidden in Russia and those that they have or government's lottery or illigle organizations.

This Russia thingy has been very amusing lately. First, the president becomes mad about the crypto's. Now they are banning blockchain related website. In my opinion, bitcoin or blockchain technology will not be accepted in Russia period. The Russian government 2018 supposed to be embracing bitcoin will not come into reality.
So my western opinion of Russia that only illegitimate activity will continue to occur... nothing changed...
wonder how Russia's govt back crypto will fair within and outside of Russia...
