Seems like no, the Russia government prefer to create their own crypto currency, according to them it is easier to control it and of course the governments is going to regulate it,  so in the future I don't think the government is going to accept Bitcoin or any other ICO


True,  more of the governments that already have an idea about btc  really wants to have a currency that they can hardly monitor or control.  It will be more easier for them if they will have their own currency.

Good day. I would like to ask you something. I come from a very poor country called SLOVAKIA.
Since 2010 I have been watching the development of Bitcoin crypts and my dream is to have at least one Bitcoin that I would like to leave my daughter.
That's why I would like to ask you who you have Bitcoinov, or you would not help me.
I want you to send me not Bitcoin but only a little rubble that will not make you mistake.
Thank you very much for your help.
My adress is : 3AnEEwquFuuDKZNg4KT7Vb4ddemUymh1E9
Thank you very much very much.

We all know that cryptocurrency and Russia have contradictory relationships.

Russia seeking for the way how to regulate cryptocurrency, for example, some of Russians officials claim that bitcoin and cryptocurrency should be considered as "goods" and not a "currency". Also, they banned well known Russian media about cryptocurrency. They still don't want to legalize Bitcoin explaining that this currency is used for money-laundering and illegal business.

On the other hand, there are a lot ICO campaigns in Russia. Almost every week the crypto and blockchain events are organized. And Russian crypto community is quite big. There is project I also represent. So that is why it is very important for me.

Do you believe that one day Russian government will legalize Bitcoin and join cryptocommunity?
yes i do believe that one they that they will not only accept it, but they will also be making use of it as a method of payment. the only constants thing that we have in this life is change.. as time goes on and they find out the benefit of have cryptocurrency in the society they will have no other option than to join the leading team.

I am more likely to think that Russia will go forward with the creation of their own cryptoruble or whatever, under control of the state instead of under control of Chinese miners and Wall Street sharks (which probably are now accumulating BTC like there is no tomorrow)

I think they will certainly recognize the legitimacy of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, as bitcoin slowly steps into people's lives over time and becomes popular using bitcoin as a means of payment. Not only Russia but also all countries should recognize the legitimacy of Bitcoin. This is our belief.
Recently in Russia they clearly stated that they recognize only their cryptor as a legitimate means of payment from the crypto currency. If you look at the contradictory statements regarding the crypto currency of the top officials of this state and their very frequent negative attitude to the crypto currency, it becomes clear that there is no prospect of going there with a decentralized crypto currency. In Russia, the rights of citizens are very restricted, and therefore such a state with the principles of free decentralized crypto-currency is incompatible.

I think Russia likes technology and really wants to apply it,but can not do it with the current crypto currency because they can not handle taxes on it.This is a problem for many countries but Russia is taking immediate action by banning everything.Until they find a solution to it,maybe until there is a change that they remove from the coin.

There are a lot of loopholes in bitcoin need to be improved, it takes time, I think the legalization of bitcoin is just a matter of time, encrypted currency is the future trend, the Russian government's actions show that they gradually accepted the encrypted currency, accept bitcoin is just a matter of time.

It could have happened, everything is not impossible, it is true that Russia has contributed since this year to cryptocurrency and many more, I think the country will be slow in years to legalize Bitcoin and will most likely join the crypto community around the world. .


Since the economic crisis in Russia in 2014, the economic situation is gradually recovering, but this does not mean that the risk of economic crisis has been reduced. Bitcoin, an industry recognized safe-haven asset, can help Russia sidestep some of its economic constraints and financial turmoil, so Russia's central bank will eventually opt for bitcoin.

I know that Russia is one of the few countries that have an open policy towards cryptocurrency. You can recall Russia's support for ETH. Although Russia does not publicly support bitcoins, Russia does not prohibit it, which is a pretty good thing for the Putin government.

Do really know what are you saying here? Russia with Putin at the helm will ban everything that can disrupt their government, including bitcoin and crypto.

That's why they have been contracting as far as their official statement. You can't find anything substantially, they will say they will support this and that, which is total bullshit.

How about the bitcoin mining farm? Anyone heard about it lately? They have been reports that they will put up one, but where is it? They're just giving everyone a false hope.

And that's why they created their own coin, cryptorubble because they are not going to accept any crypto except their government-backed coin.

Russia has never been friendly to bitcoin They had tried their best to ban bitcoin but they could not.Even the russian president putin went to the extent of terming bitcoin as a pyramid scheme.

But totally in contrast to their stand against bitcoin,they have not yet banned any ICOs and also we could see large number of russian companies taking part in ICOs actively.

Russia disgusts me. Any country with human rights laws as ancient as theirs needs serious restructuring. I am sickened by Russia’s dictatorship and lack of social progress. Just like China, Russia has an iron fist rule on its people and if anything I could see Russia’s government creating their own cryptocurrency (likely the only to be legal).

Till now the Russian government is not willing to legalize bitcoin or cryptocurrencies. Eventhough crypto is very popular in Russia. But you never know what Putin and his government really think. Today they want to ban all cryptocurrencies and tomorrow it might be totally different. But if they do legalize and accept cryptocurrencies, then that would be huge.

Hi,

What you descried here is quite logical in fact. The bitcoin community is large in Russia... and supposedly no member of the government or director of any powerful institution is part of it. So it is a "soft" war beteween the people, simple individuals, and the haves.

I guess that one day, countries will no longer be able to ignore bitcoin. That is why many governments are trying to design legislation about crypto. However, for them, the bitcoin (and the other alt coins) is a threat. It cannot be manipulated at will, the blockchain cannot be corrupted. I guess this is quite hard to handle for them, because they often use those tools.

Consequently: no, I don't think any government is ready to officially legalize bitcoin. But if the community grows enough and the use of bitcoin get spread... Maybe we stand a chance! Wink
I believe that BIT is not supposed to be legalized in Russia in nearest future, moreover I don think that Russian goverment support the idea of having any crypto currencies (maybe apparto from crypto rub Smiley ). But mining crypto society and is very developed. Big bisnesess are becoming engaged in blockchain and mining.Sberbank and AlfaBank had transactions via their blockchain protocols, it means a lot.Many big and high-potential ICOs are held in Russia as well. Therefore, many interesting ICOs such as KickCity or others emerge in Russia.

What is KickCity?

It is company known for Decentralized Event Management & Marketing Protocol on Blockchain. Read their telegram chat: https://t.me/kickcity_chat . U can find everything in there.


Thanks for Telegram's link. I want to invest some btc from my wallet. Very interesting!

The point is that Bitcoin IS a good and not a currency. Facts tell us that people buy it to store it and to either sell it higher or to buy just other cryptos. Bitcoin is barely used for purchasing objects out of cryptoland.

If i will be asked if it will be better if it is legalized in your place, i would say it is better to remain like that, as it is today. Not legal but not banned. The moment the government legalize it, there will come problems for users. Of course the government will not allow legalizing it with out taking part in it. In tax and control. Better be like that in my opinion.
