MOSCOW, December 12/Prime The Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation has developed a bill on the “export” of cryptocurrencies, since there is, for example, the export of gas, the Deputy Minister said Finance of the Russian Federation Ivan Chebeskov at the round table «Cryptocurrency and the future of digital finance.»
«We also worked on, and there is such an option and a bill — to use the export of cryptocurrency as a product of mining activities. Just as there is special legislation for the export of gas, for example, using this example we developed a concept — a bill that a miner could export this product, cryptocurrency, as an export product. Such a legislative initiative is also being formed in our country,” he said.
The head of the State Duma Committee on the Financial Market, Anatoly Aksakov, indicated in the summer that a package of bills on cryptocurrency was being considered in the State Duma, including on mining, on experimental legal regimes, on taxation, and on transactions with cryptocurrencies. In addition, according to him, a bill has been proposed regarding the liability of cryptocurrencies.
And in early November, the head of the Bank of Russia, Elvira Nabiullina, said that the Central Bank supports, within the framework of experimental regimes, the use of cryptocurrency in cross-border payments.
