The Central Bank published a report last week, where it proposed to ban the mining of cryptocurrencies in the territory of the Russian Federation, the use of the infrastructure of the Russian financial market for any operations with them. In turn, the Ministry of Finance advocated regulation, not a ban on cryptocurrencies. «We need to work out the possibility of regulating the cryptocurrency market in order to make some decisions. Look at the results that other countries have come to,» Abramov told RIA Novosti on Thursday. According to him, Russia should choose what is beneficial for its economy and citizens. According to Abramov, only prohibitive measures should not be used, it is necessary to leave options for possible development in this area, but under the control of the state, having worked out all the mechanisms to protect the interests of Russians. %Plan to buy0%Was but sold0%NoVoteVoted: Yesterday, 17:06
