The keyword here is "can". The same, and under the same law, applies to payments in $, £, € or any other currency.

Though everybody does it, if you travel to, say, Sochi, and pay someone there in dollars for a used car, the recipient can come under scrutiny for money laundering.

Good thing then that there's the good ole U S of A that needs to buy those natural resources like a "real industrialized economy" in order to run that fleet of mobility scooters to move around their population of morbidly obese people inside Walmart, huh ^__^
Damn, he must have hit a nerve eh?

It's amazing how the Rooskies keep trying to re-lose a cold war they already lost. Held up our Olympic team's yogurt at customs. Country run by a short bald guy who plays Karate and rides horses bare-chested. Their whole economy is based off of selling their natural resources to real industrialized economies. And that's the improved Russia!

Cold war? The question of who truly lost it will be answered in a few hundred of years. As for now, Russia has managed to cut back its military spendings, while US bloats them; Russia is not invading anyone, while US is doing it non-stop, trying to ignite WW3 and maintaining its title of the Evil Empire.

Your comment is a manifestation of a certain type of a blindfolded and brainwashed Western/US mindset, which longs for the days of the cold war. Hopefully you are not in the majority.

You are sadly right that selling of natural resources had become the main source of income, mainly because of the politicians since Yeltsin's times, who sold their soul to the Western transnats, WTO and money cartels, as well as to a group of money-loving oligarchs who are as Russian as Obama is Irish.

Sounds like good news Smiley Especially this part:

"Certain distribution received anonymous payment systems and kriptovalyuty, including the most famous of them - Bitcoin are money substitutes and can not be used by individuals and legal entities."

EDIT: http://kommersant.ru/doc/2401035

"..therefore, the money can not be used by citizens and organizations of the Russian Federation."

And this is not fake.

General Prosecutor's Office meeting regarding virtual currencies.

TL;DR: Following the meeting, outlining specific joint actions of the Bank of Russia and law enforcement to prevent possible violations in the sphere of money circulation in Russia, a number of specific solutions aimed at preventing violations of property rights of citizens and organizations associated with the use crypto currencies (yes! crypto!) . Taking into account international experience identified further areas of work on the legal regulation of this sector.

Russia central bank bans Bitcoin
A Bank has got the power to ban something, is the Bank above the Law?

All over the world, it certainly looks so.

They didn't ban Bitcoin, they just pointed out already existing laws against money laundering and issuing surrogate currency and tried to scare the public away from Bitcoin making some sort of threatening statement. Nothing new or special about it really, this is exactly the reaction everyone should expect from Central Banks all over the world, not just Russia.

they control governments by controlling the money, so yes they're above the law - they probably even drafted a lot of them.

 "Let me issue and control a Nation's money and I care not who makes its laws".

In short: Central Bank of Russia prohibits any (really any) usage of Bitcoin and will treat it as criminal activity and terrorism support.

Bank of Russia is just another Central Bank llluminati style like all the Rothchild Central Banks around the world - except in Iran, N-Korea, Syria, Libya, Iraq, … oops, cancel the last two.

No particular news here. Another head of the same beast.




How do we know Bitcoin is not an illuminati project, a wolf dressed as sheep?

Because it's open source. It doesn't matter who created it if the code and the economics are sound.

Central Bank is pretty conservative in Russia and this statement looks quite logical to me.

Potentially, they may allow operations in bitcoins after the majority of the world accepts it (1), and (2) after internal security agencies (NSA type) are OK with it.

They will not be in avangarde of BTC movement as little countries like Singapore, Denmark.. who else is there Smiley
